Comment
See account by Heyer, 1973, Contrib. Sci. Nat. Hist. Mus. Los Angeles Co., 251: 29-31 (as Leptodactylus andreae). Duellman, 1978, Misc. Publ. Mus. Nat. Hist. Univ. Kansas, 65: 82–83, provided a brief account. Zimmerman, 1983, Herpetologica, 39: 235–246, and Zimmerman and Bogart, 1984, Acta Amazonica, 14: 473–520, reported on vocalization.
