Presumably SMF 7286 is a Lectotype by designation, fide Edwards, 1974 . Type locality: “Puerto Cabello in Venezuela .” Distribution: Region 2. Central Cordillera de la Costa (to be better determined). Remarks: The name herminae has long been associated with the abundant populations found in the Cordillera de la Costa. Unpublished genetic data (by J.C. Santos) indicates some of these populations belong to an undescribed species. Mannophryne herminae sensu stricto apparently is found only in San Esteban ( Carabobo state ) and surrounding areas, near Puerto Cabello. The identity of other populations from Cordillera de la Costa traditionally determined as M. herminae need confirmation. Rojas-Runjaic et al. (2018) redefined M. herminae and restricts Mannophryne herminae sensu stricto to the northern slope of Cordillera de la Costa between Carabobo and Aragua states. In the Mannophryne collaris species group (Manzanilla et al. 2007; Grant et al. 2017 ). 82B. Mannophryne collaris . Female. Estanquillo, Chama river valley, Mérida. Photo: César Barrio-Amorós. 83A.
