Type locality: Taracuá, Uaupés, Brazil . Distribution: Widely dispersed in Amazonia occurring in Brazil , Ecuador , Colombia , Bolivia , the Guianas, and Peru . In Venezuela , known only from near Raudal de Danto, Cuao River, Amazonas State (Rojas-Runjaic et al. 2013). Remarks: Amazophrynella minuta is an abundant terrestrial species of the forest floor leaf litter throughout its distribution. In Venezuela it is very rare. Only one specimen found in many years of monitoring amphibians in Amazonas State (Rojas-Runjaic et al. 2013). Fouquet et al. (2012a) suggested a different species of the A. minuta complex may exist in the Guianas and, thus, populations currently considered to belong to species A. minuta need to be better defined to delineate specification. Rojas et al. (2016) further examined the A. minuta complex. Selected references: Fouquet et al. (2012a ,b); Rojas-Runjaic et al. (2013); Rojas et al. (2014) .
