Eterovick and Sazima, 2004, Anf. Serra do Cipó: 83-84, provided a photograph and brief account. Carvalho, Leite, and Pezzuti, 2013, Zootaxa, 3701: 349-364, described the advertisement call. In the Leptodactylus fuscus species group of de Sá, Grant, Camargo, Heyer, Ponssa, and Stanley, 2014, S. Am. J. Herpetol., 9(Spec.
