Dos nuevas especies de Phrynopus (Anura: Leptodactylidae) de los bosques nublados de Bolivia

We describe two new species of Phrynopus from cloud forests in Cochabamba, Bolivia. The new species are assigned to the P. peruanus group and are characterized by the presence of basal webbing, distinctive coloration, and by having the first finger shorter than the second. The first of these new spe...

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.
