Remarks : Recently erected by Heinicke et al. (2015) to accommodate a clade of terraranan frogs deeply divergent from Pristimantis . More species currently in Pristimantis will probably be shown to be members of Tachiramantis , such as P. melanoproctus , P. mondolfii and P. tayrona (due to its similarity to P. prolixodiscus ).
