Identity of Boana hutchinsi View in CoL
According to Peloso et al. (2018), specimens of clade D (clade S 5 in that publication) represent B. hutchinsi . This assignmentwasbasedoncomparisonsbetweenspecimens from Vaupés ( Colombia), Amazonas ( Brazil) and the type material of B. hutchinsi (holotype UTA-A 24819 and paratypes 24830 and 24835). Nevertheless, a thorough review of the description of B. hutchinsi indicates that it is not conspecific with clade D. We base this conclusion on the original description of type material ( Pyburn & Hall, 1984), which differs from that of clade D: webbing between second, third and fourth fingers black in adults (yellowish white, brown or cream in clade D), dorsum lavender-grey in recently metamorphosed individuals (brown with black flecks in clade D) and advertisement calls having four to six notes with a mean duration of 0.68 s (one note with mean duration of 0.24 s in clade D). The available evidence indicates that B. hutchinsi have not been included in any molecular phylogeny.
