Comment
Removed from the synonymy of Hylinae by Duellman, Marion, and Hedges, 2016, Zootaxa, 4104: 24, where it had been placed by Bokermann, 1966, An. Acad. Brasil. Cienc., 38: 355-344; and Goin, 1961, Ann. Carnegie Mus., 36: 7. For access to pertinent literature see the comments under Hylinae and Hylidae. Forti, Foratto, Márquez, Pereira, and Toledo, 2018, PeerJ, 6(e4813): 1–19, reported on bioacoustic cold- and hot-spots and compared the calls of the species in this subfamily. Blotto, Lyra, Cardoso, Rodrigues, Dias, Marciano, Vechio, Orrico, Brandão, Assis, Lantyer-Silva, Rutherford, Gagliardi-Urrutia, Solé, Baldo, Nunes, Cajade, Torres, Grant, Jungfer, Silva, Haddad, and Faivovich, 2021, Cladistics, 37: 36–72, reported on the molecular phylogenetics of this taxon.
