“…To establish the the methods proposed by Anganoy-Criollo (2013), as follow. For we examined all free-swimming tadpoles of dendrobatoid frogs captured with the type series of this species and the back-riding tadpoles described by Mueses-Cisneros (2008). We compared the features of metamorphosing tadpoles (such as the oblique lateral stripe, features of the feet, and the color pattern of legs) with those of adult to verify our Anganoy-Criollo (2013; e.g., upper jaw sheath, examined.…”

Redescription of the tadpoles of Epipedobates narinensis and E. boulengeri (Anura: Dendrobatidae). The larval morphology of poison frogs (Dendrobatoidea) has contributed to an understanding of the phylogenetic relationships within the superfamily. Nevertheless, our knowledge of larval morphology is incomplete. The larvae of the dendrobatids, and are redescribed, diagnosed, and differentiated from three congeners, as well as sympatric dendrobatoids and closely related genera. Three larval developmental phases are described-viz., (1) back-riding tadpoles, (2) free-swimming tadpoles, and (3) metamorphosing tadpoles. Each larval phase is characterized by ontogenetic changes in external morphology, and there is also morphological variation within each developmental phase. Ontogenetic morphological changes are the most marked in back-riding and metamorphosing phases. The external features of free-swimming tadpoles do not change abruptly, but ontogenetic changes occur in the marginal papillae, stitches of the lateral line system, and tail coloration. Four features that have not been considered previously distinguish species-groups and/or generamoderate A-2 gap; presence of shelf on back of the upper jaw sheath [UJS]; moderate notch on mid-UJS; and nostril size; these characters are putative synapomorphies of Metamorphosing tadpoles have some adult features, such as the color Keywords: A-2 gap size, anteroventral coloration, Colostethinae, larval characters, nostril, ontogenetic variation. 156Phyllomedusa -16(2), December 2017 ResumenRedescripción de los renacuajos de Epipedobates narinensis y E. boulengeri (Anura: Dendrobatidae).La morfología larvaria de las ranas venenosas (Dendrobatoidea) ha contribuido en el entendimiento de las relaciones de parentesco dentro de la superfamilia.

We describe a new species, Epipedobates darwinwallacei sp. nov., from the area of Mindo, on northwestern Ecuador. It inhabits low montane forests in an elevational range of about 1250-1390 m. It differs from all congeneric species by its strong aposematic coloration and tarsal keels. Among species of Epipedobates, the new species has been confused with E. boulengeri and E. espinosai, but it differs from them by its dorsal coloration with bright orange to yellow spots.Keywords. Epipedobates darwinwallacei sp. nov., Pichincha, Mindo, Aposematism, poison frog.

Poison frogs (Dendrobatidae) are famous for their aposematic species, having a combination of diverse color patterns and defensive skin toxins, yet most species in this family are inconspicuous (cryptic) and considered non-aposematic.Epipedobatesis among the youngest genus-level clades of Dendrobatidae that includes both aposematic and cryptic species. Using mitochondrial and nuclear markers, we demonstrate deep genetic divergences among cryptic species ofEpipedobatesbut relatively shallow genetic divergences among conspicuous species. Our phylogenetic analysis includes broad geographic sampling of the cryptic lineages typically identified asE. boulengeriandE. espinosai, which reveals two putative new species, one in west-central Colombia (E.sp. 1) and the other in north-central Ecuador (E.aff.espinosai). We conclude thatE. darwinwallaceiis a junior subjective synonym ofE. espinosai. We also clarify the geographic distributions of crypticEpipedobatesspecies including the widespreadE. boulengeri. We provide a qualitative assessment of the phenotypic diversity in each nominal species, with a focus on the color and pattern of cryptic species. We conclude thatEpipedobatescontains eight known valid species, six of which are cryptic. A relaxed molecular clock analysis suggests that the most recent common ancestor ofEpipedobatesis ~11.1 million years old, which nearly doubles previous estimates. Last, genetic information points to a center of species diversity in the Chocó at the southwestern border of Colombia with Ecuador.
