In this section, coloration refers to preserved specimens unless otherwise noted. Morphometric data for adult specimens are summarized in Table 5, whereas variation in dorsal coloration of preserved specimens is shown in Figure 5. Dorsal coloration varies between light cream (e.g., QCAZ 55423) and cream suffused with a coppery hue (e.g., QCAZ 52855) with brownish cream or creamy coppery enlarged tubercles, bearing scattered dark brown reticulations or marks. In all specimens the belly and ventral areas of thighs are lighter than those of the holotype probably

Dorsal coloration is greenish cream with scattered brown marks or reticulations, top and sides of head are more greenish in some specimens (e.g. QCAZ 52855); lips greenish with scattered small dark brown marks; supratympanic fold delineated by a thin brown edge, tympanic membrane lighter than the background; flanks with coloration similar to dorsum; axilla and groin pale orange, ventrolateral region whitish cream, limbs with faint brown transversal bands; dorsal surfaces of hands and feet, including webbing, greenish cream with scattered dark brown marks; discs pale green. Throat, chest and belly are white but some specimens have an orange hue on the belly (e.g. QCAZ 55423); serrate fringes along forearms and tarsus white; webbing, thighs and concealed surfaces of shanks orange. Iris is cream with a light coppery hue bearing some scattered black venations. Juvenile specimen QCAZ 55413 is similar to adult specimens but has a brownish cream dorsum with scattered faint brown blotches (Fig. 3

(QCAZ 53699) are detailed in Table 3. The call consists of a cackle of short notes repeated at a fast rate with amplitude modulation (Fig. 6). Note amplitude and note rate increase markedly along the first half of the call, decreasing at the end. The call has two harmonics but most of the energy located on the first. Fundamental frequency of the notes ranges from 515.6 to 796.9 Hz (mean = 619.1, SD = 77.2). Two notes located at ~50% of the call duration have their greatest energy in the second harmonic, at 1078.1 and 1195.3 Hz. All other notes have their greatest energy in the first harmonic. The dominant frequency of the entire call ranges from 562.5 to 632.8

The southernmost and highest locality is Cordillera Escalera, San Martin department, in northeastern Peru (CRBIIAP 1252).

The specimen recorded at Juyuintza was calling from a tree hole 1.5 m above the ground in Terra Firme forest. The hole had a depth of ~15 cm and a diameter of 10 cm, and was
