Osteocephalus alboguttatus View in CoL group
The majority rule consensus delimited four OTUs within the Osteocephalus alboguttatus group ( Fig. 1a View Fig ). Three of them unambiguously correspond to described species with sequences from their type locality: Osteocephalus alboguttatus Boulenger, 1882 ( Fig. 3a View Fig in the Appendix); O. heyeri Lynch, 2002 ; and O. subtilis Martins & Cardoso, 1987 . The sequences of the fourth OTU ( O. aff. subtilis ) are from Serra do Divisor (border between Brazil and Peru), and form a highly divergent sister group, geographically close, to O. subtilis sensu stricto ( Fig. 1a View Fig ; Electronic Supplement 3). Osteocephalus melanops Melo-Sampaio et al., 2021 was recently described and thus it could not be included in our analyses. However, it is phenotypically distinct from the other species in this group and displays a sister relationship with O. alboguttatus ( Melo-Sampaio et al., 2021) .
