a new species of pristimantis from southern ecuador (anura, craugastoridae).	a new species of pristimantis is described from reserva buenaventura, southern ecuador, at elevations between 878 and 1082 m. a molecular phylogeny based on nuclear and mitochondrial genes shows that the new species is closely related to pristimantis phoxocephalus, pristimantis riveti, and pristimantis versicolor. the new species differs from them and other morphologically similar congeners in having a low w-shaped dermal ridge in the scapular region, a large conical tubercle on the upper eyelid ...	2016	27551223
systematics of huicundomantis, a new subgenus of pristimantis (anura, strabomantidae) with extraordinary cryptic diversity and eleven new species.	pristimantis is the most diverse genus of tetrapods comprising 532 described species. it contains a large number of morphologically cryptic species that are being discovered with the assistance of genetic evidence. we use molecular, morphological, bioacoustic, and environmental data to assess the phylogenetic relationships and determine the species within an andean clade of pristimantis, which is distributed from central ecuador to northern peru. we assign to this clade the name huicundomantis a ...	2019	31406482
