Comment

Removed from the synonymy of Proceratophrys boiei by Prado and Pombal, 2008, Arq. Zool., São Paulo, 39: 38, where it had been placed by Bokermann, 1966, Lista Anot. Local. Tipo Anf. Brasil.: 26, and Izecksohn and Peixoto, 1981, Rev. Brasil. Biol., 41: 19-24. See account by Prado and Pombal, 2008, Arq. Zool., São Paulo, 39: 1-85 [38-43]. Nascimento, Lisboa, Skuk, and de Sá, 2010, S. Am. J. Herpetol., 5: 241-248, reported on larval morphology. Santana, Rodriguez, Albuquerque, Laranjeiras, Protázio, França, and Mesquita, 2011, Zootaxa, 2809: 67–68, reported on the advertisement call. Mângia, Guimarães, and Feio, 2012, Check List, 8: 298-299, provided a range extension in Minas Gerais, and a range map. Dubeux, Silva, Nascimento, Gonçalves, and Mott, 2019, Rev. Nordestina Zool., 12: 18–52, summarized the literature on larval morphology. See Dubeux, Nascimento, Lima, Magalhães, Silva, Gonçalves, Almeida, Correia, Garda, Mesquita, Rossa-Feres, and Mott, 2020, Biota Neotrop., 20 (2: e20180718): 1–24, for characterization and identification of larvae north of the Rio São Francisco in the Atlantic Forest of northeastern Brazil.
