Comment
Confused with Boana fasciatus prior to its naming according to the original publication, where the morphology, advertisement call, and molecular phylogenetic relations within the Boana albopunctata group, Boana steinbachi clade, were detailed. Lescure and Marty, 2000, Collect. Patrimoines Nat., Paris, 45: 128–129, provided a brief account and photo (as Hyla fasciata) in French Guiana. Taucce, Costa-Campos, Carvalho, and Michalski, 2022, Eur. J. Taxon., 836: 96–130, reported on distribution, literature, and conservation status for Amapá, Brazil.
