Comment
In group IV or IX of Rivero, 1990 "1988", Mem. Soc. Cienc. Nat. La Salle, 48: 3-32, according to the original publication. Grant, Frost, Caldwell, Gagliardo, Haddad, Kok, Means, Noonan, Schargel, and Wheeler, 2006, Bull. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist., 299: 174, discussed the species, known only from the holotype, and could not allocate it beyond Dendrobatidae, merely retaining it in a non-taxon "Colostethus". Transferred to Leucostethus on phylogenetic grounds by Marín-Castaño, Molina-Zuluaga, Restrepo, Cano, and Daza-R., 2018, Zootaxa, 4461: 364.
