Abstract

New species of Eleutherodactylus of the unistrigatus species group is described from the summit of Cerro Marahuaka, Estado Amazonas, Venezuela. The new species is easily distinguished from other southern Venezuelan Eleutherodactylus by its indistinct tympanum, absence of calcars, indistinct metatarsal tubercles, smooth dorsal skin, weak fringes on fingers and toes, lack of basal webbing, iris colour pattern and overall body coloration. A historical resumé of southern Venezuelan Eleutherodactylus is provided.
