Dendropsophus miyatai (Vigle &

Goberdhan-Vigle, 1990)

This small-sized and elusive species is originally described as distributed in Ecuadorian Amazonia (CisnerosHeredia, 2005). Since then, populations within western lowland Amazonia in Peru, Colombia, and Brazil have been attributed to this name. However, these localities of occurrence are in some cases patchily distributed, and the full range of this species is overall irresolute (CisnerosHeredia, 2005). This is partially explained by the fact that the species mostly exploit seasonally flooded habitats, which are historically neglected in standardized inventories ( Moraes et al., 2022a), and by misidentification with other Dendropsophus Fitzinger, 1843 . In the light of available evidence, D. miyatai is widely distributed in the margins of the main western Amazonian rivers, extending through the east following the course of the Amazon River.
