Comment
Massemin, Bordage, and Kunz, 2007, Salamandra, 43: 139-147, reported the species for French Guiana and discussed its natural history. Rodríguez and Duellman, 1994, Univ. Kansas Mus. Nat. Hist. Spec. Publ., 22: 77–78, provided a brief account for the Iquitos region of northeastern Peru. Acosta-Galvis, Lasso, and Morales-Betancourt, 2016, Biota Colomb., 17: 105–116, provided a record from the Orinoco drainage of Colombia and discussed its range and cast doubt on the distinctiveness of this nominal species from Pipa pipa.
