| Descripción: | We describe two new species of Phrynopusfrom cloud forests in Cochabamba, Bolivia. The newspecies are assigned to the P.peruanusgroup and are characterized by the presence of basal webbing, distinc-tive coloration, and by having the first finger shorter than the second. The first of these new species was col-lected near Montepunko in Parque Nacional Carrasco and is known from eight males and six females. Amongits distinctive characteristics are round cream-colored glands on its flanks. A second species is known from onemale and one female collected near “Zona de Aguirre” near the northwest border of the park. V and X-shapedblotches and a dorsum that is smooth except for dorsolateral and scapular folds characterize this species. Mus-culature has rarely been described for species of Phrynopus. The species from Montepunko has unusual gularand thigh musculature that is quite unlike other species of the genus. |
