Cibyra dorita View in CoL species-group

Four entirely or largely allopatric species, three of which are localized to the eastern Andean slopes, and two along the coastal region where C. dorita has marginal overlap with C. verresi sp. nov. (Pl. 31, Fig. 2a View PLATE 1 ). This geographic pattern is consistent with ancestral allopatry between the Andes and Atlantic coast (Pl. 31, Fig. 2b View PLATE 1 ). We have included here the locality of C. yungas which is the only other (monotypic) species-group in the Andes, and represents a potentially close relative to the C. dorita species-group.
