All paratypes (Figs 6, 7) are similar to the holotype regarding morphology and proportions (Tables 3, 4). Besides differences in SVL, notable morphological variation includes prominence of dorsolateral folds. Two females (MUSM 31971, NMP 6 V 75540; Figs 7 E, H) have prominent dorsolateral folds of pale grayish coloration on dark grayish brown dorsum. Most striking is the coloration polymorphism which resembles the color range of plants the frogs inhabit (Fig. 16 C). The dorsal and lateral ground coloration is pale grayish brown (MUSM 31971, NMP 6 V 75540; Figs 7 D, G), orange brown (NMP 6 V 75097; Fig. 6 B), pale yellowish brown (MUSM 31198; Fig. 7 B) or reddish brown (MUSM 31970; Fig. 6 E) with dark grayish-brown marmorations. The dorsum and flanks have reddish brown flecks in one male (MUSM 31970; Fig. 6 E), pale yellowish brown in one female (MUSM 31198; Fig. 7 B), and orange in one female (NMP 6 V 75540; Fig. 7 E). Flanks are paler than dorsum. Males have the throat and vocal sac pale grayish orange (MUSM 31970; Fig. 6 F) or salmon (( NMP 6 V 75097; Fig. 6 C). The venter is pale gray (NMP 6 V 75540, Fig. 7 F; MUSM 31970, Fig. 6 F; MUSM 31971, Fig. 7 I; NMP 6 V 75066), pale greenish gray (NMP 6 V 75097; Fig. 6 C) or creamish white (MUSM 31198; Fig. 7 C) with or without dark gray mottling.	en	Lehr, Edgar, May, Rudolf Von, Moravec, Jiří, Cusi, Juan Carlos (2017): Three new species of Pristimantis (Amphibia, Anura, Craugastoridae) from upper montane forests and high Andean grasslands of the Pui Pui Protected Forest in central Peru.

DD17CB3F9E4EFFE0C6B47BD15E812DA3.taxon	distribution	Distribution, natural history, and threat status. Pristimantis bounides sp. nov. is known from two locations in the humid montane forest ecoregion (Brack 1986, Figs 2, 16 A, B): the type locality in the Tasta valley, " Runda " at 3463 m a. s. l (7.5 km [airline] from the border of PPPF), and the Satipo-Toldopampa Road at km 134 on left side of street coming from Satipo at 3350 m a. s. l. (4.2 km [airline] from the type locality). The vegetation at the type locality consists of Peruvian feather grass (Stipa ichu), large layers of mosses, small bushes, trees, and forest patches (Fig. 16 B). The vegetation is disturbed by cattle breeding and deforestation. The male holotype was found calling from the center of Peruvian feather grass in the early afternoon on 19 May 2012 during light rain. No sympatric anuran species were found at the type locality. At km 134 of the Satipo-Toldopampa Road, calling males were heard from the moss layer in the early afternoon on 23 June 2013. On the same day a female P. bounides sp. nov. (NMP 6 V 75540; Fig. 16 C) guarding 20 eggs was found there inside moss. The eggs were pale cream colored and had an average diameter of 3.4 ± 0.1 mm (3.2 – 3.7 mm, n = 20). Sympatric anurans include Phrynopus sp. A (IWU 285) and Gastrotheca griswoldi Shreve, 1941 (MUSM 31972). We propose that Pristimantis bounides sp. nov. should be classified as " Data Deficient " according to the IUCN Red List criteria and categories (IUCN Standards and Petitions Subcommittee 2016) based on the low number of specimens known. Threats include agriculture and cattle breeding in both valleys, more acute in the Toldopampa valley than in the Tasta valley.	en	Lehr, Edgar, May, Rudolf Von, Moravec, Jiří, Cusi, Juan Carlos (2017): Three new species of Pristimantis (Amphibia, Anura, Craugastoridae) from upper montane forests and high Andean grasslands of the Pui Pui Protected Forest in central Peru.

Comparisons. Pristimantis humboldti sp. nov. is readily distinguished from its congeners in Ecuador (181 species), Peru (130 species), and Bolivia (17 species); AmphibiaWeb (2017), by having discontinuous dorsolateral folds, tuberculate flanks, and an areolate venter which is dark gray and pale gray mottled with white and pale gray spots. Pristimantis humboldti sp. nov. and P. phalaroinguinis (Lehr & Duellman, 2007 b) from elevations between 1800 and 2600 m a. s. l. in northern Peru have the groin dark brown with white spots, but P. humboldti sp. nov. is much smaller (SVL in males 25.0 – 31.4 mm in P. phalaroinguinis, Lehr & Duellman 2007 b), has venter areolate (smooth), dorsolateral folds present (absent), males with vocal slits (absent), and throat, chest, belly, ventral surfaces of tibia, and axilla dark gray and pale gray mottled with white and pale gray spots (white spots restricted to groin). Pristimantis humboldti sp. nov. and P. ventriguttatus from 1800 m a. s. l. in northern Peru have dorsum shagreen, dorsolateral folds, areolate venter with pale spots, and have males of similar size (male SVL 17.8 – 21.8 mm, n = 3 in P. ventriguttatus, Lehr & Köhler 2007), but have digits moderately expanded (broadly expanded), and inner tarsal fold absent (present). Pristimantis humboldti sp. nov. and P. phoxocephalus (Lynch, 1979) from elevations between 1850 and 2770 m in southern Ecuador and northern Peru (Duellman & Lehr 2009) have a polymorphic dorsal coloration (dorsum gray to red or brown with few or no darker markings in P. phoxocephalus vs. dorsum orange brown, reddish brown or grayish brown with brownish olive, grayish brown or orange brown blotches and flecks in P. humboldti sp. nov.). However, P. humboldti sp. nov. has smaller males (male SVL 22.3 – 29.9 mm [n = 29] in P. phoxocephalus, Lynch 1979), has dorsolateral folds (absent in P. phoxocephalus), males without nuptial pads (present), and venter dark gray and pale gray mottled with white and pale gray spots (venter cream).	en	Lehr, Edgar, May, Rudolf Von, Moravec, Jiří, Cusi, Juan Carlos (2017): Three new species of Pristimantis (Amphibia, Anura, Craugastoridae) from upper montane forests and high Andean grasslands of the Pui Pui Protected Forest in central Peru.

DD17CB3F9E57FFE6C6B47BD75AF42C1E.taxon	description	Pristimantis humboldti sp. nov. shares with other members of the Pristimantis danae species Group (Fig. 3), dorsolateral folds and males (unknown for P. albertus) which have vocal slits present (absent in P. attenboroughi) and nuptial pads absent. Furthermore, all but P. attenboroughi and P. puipui sp. nov. have a tympanum and discs with circumferential grooves. Pristimantis humboldti sp. nov. is larger than P. albertus (female SVL 19.7 – 25.7 [n = 6] vs. 19.7 – 20.7 [n = 2] in P. albertus; Duellman & Hedges 2007) and has the belly colored dark gray and pale gray mottled with white and pale gray spots of different sizes and density (cream with brown mottling in P. albertus). Pristimantis humboldti sp. nov. has dorsal skin shagreen with scattered tubercle (smooth in P. aniptopalmatus) and ventral skin areolate (smooth in P. aniptopalmatus and P. ornatus). Pristimantis humboldti sp. nov. easily can be distinguished from P. stictogaster which has a white belly with prominent dark brown to black, irregularly shaped spots.

The dorsal and lateral ground coloration is orange brown with brownish-olive blotches (NMP 6 V 75096; Figs 10 A, B, D), orange brown with grayish-brown blotches and flecks (MUSM 31192; Figs 11 I – K), reddish brown with grayish-brown blotches (MUSM 31194, NMP 6 V 75095, 75538, 75539; Figs 10 E, 11 E, F) or grayish brown with orange-brown blotches (MUSM 31189; Figs 11 A – C). The interorbital bar is brownish olive or grayish brown, often followed by grayish-brown or brownish-olive mark in shape of a W (MUSM 31194) or X (NMP 6 V 75096; Fig. 10 B) or a combination of both (MUSM 31189, 31191; Fig. 11 B) on scapular region. Dark grayish-brown canthal and supratympanic stripes present, outlined by a narrow pale gray margin (e. g., MUSM 31189, NMP 6 V 75096; Figs. 10 A, 11 A) or without such an outline (e. g., NMP 6 V 75095, 75538; Fig. 11 E). Labial bars on upper lip are brownish olive, pale or dark grayish brown with or without pale tan outline, mostly diffuse (e. g., NMP 6 V 75095, 75539; Figs 10 E, 11 E), sometimes distinct (MUSM 31189, 31191, NMP 6 V 75096; Figs 10 A, 11 A) or absent (MUSM 31194).

DD17CB3F9E57FFE6C6B47BD75AF42C1E.taxon	distribution	Distribution, natural history, and threat status. The type locality at 3318 m a. s. l. on the border of the PPPF (Figs 2, 16 D, E) is in the Quebrada Tarhuish on the left bank " Shiusha " of the Antuyo River and belongs to the upper montane forest (Brack 1986). The vegetation consists of small bushes, small trees, forest patches, Peruvian feather grass, fern, and moss layers. Pristimantis humboldti sp. nov. was found inside Peruvian feather grass bunches (MUSM 31189) in the early afternoon and at night (1900 – 2100 hrs) on low vegetation up to 1 m from ground (MUSM 31190, 31191, 31194, NMP 6 V 75095, 75096) and on ground (MUSM 31192) inside a forest patch. Males called during rain in late morning and afternoon, and at night. Sympatric anurans are Gastrotheca griswoldi (MUSM 31193), and Pristimantis attenboroughi (MUSM 31186, 31187, NMP 6 V 75522, 75523). Four specimens had ectoparasitic mite (Trombiculidae) infestations (MUSM 31192, 31194, NMP 6 V 75096, 75539; Fig. 10) ranging from one (MUSM 31192) to 17 (NMP 6 V 75096) mite capsules distributed on the flanks and posterior surfaces of thighs. We propose that P. humboldti sp. nov. should be classified as " Data Deficient " according to the IUCN Red List criteria and categories (IUCN Standards and Petitions Subcommittee 2016). Given that P. humboldti sp. nov. occurs inside the PPPF, the long-term protection of this species should be supported by this nationally recognized protected area. However, other factors such as fungal infections, climate change, and pollution continue to threaten many Andean amphibians even inside protected areas (Catenazzi & von May 2014).	en	Lehr, Edgar, May, Rudolf Von, Moravec, Jiří, Cusi, Juan Carlos (2017): Three new species of Pristimantis (Amphibia, Anura, Craugastoridae) from upper montane forests and high Andean grasslands of the Pui Pui Protected Forest in central Peru.
