Besides the holotype, no specimens of this species have been collected at the type locality (Zamora, Provincia Zamora-Chinchipe), which lies east of the Andes and is therefore separated from all other verified localities by a major geographical barrier. Because a similar situation is true for other species of amphibians and reptiles with the same type locality, this locality is probably erroneous (
