A new species of frog of the genus is described from a montane forest between 1700 and 1800 m a.s.l. of the Pui Pui Protected Forest (Región Junín) in central Peru. is described based on five adult females (snout-vent length 23.1-26.7 mm) and ten juveniles (snout-vent length 10.6-13.4). It differs from its congeners by having the skin on dorsum shagreen with many conical tubercles giving it a spinose appearance, lacking a tympanum, having groin, anterior and posterior surfaces of thighs uniformly grayish brown, and a pale bronze iris with fine black reticulations, a median reddish hint horizontally across iris, and a black narrow vertical streak from pupil across lower and upper half of iris. Among the Peruvian that lack a tympanum, is morphologically most similar to , , and . However, 16S DNA barcoding revealed clear distinctions between all four species of .
在秘鲁中部普伊普伊保护区（胡宁地区）海拔1700至1800米的山地森林中，描述了一种新的蛙属物种。该物种基于五只成年雌性（吻肛长23.1 - 26.7毫米）和十只幼体（吻肛长10.6 - 13.4）进行描述。它与同属其他物种的区别在于，背部皮肤粗糙，有许多锥形瘤，使其呈现多刺外观；没有鼓膜；腹股沟、大腿前表面和后表面均为均匀的灰棕色；虹膜为浅青铜色，有精细的黑色网状花纹，虹膜水平方向有一条红色中线，从瞳孔穿过虹膜上下半部分有一条黑色窄垂直线条。在秘鲁没有鼓膜的蛙类中，该物种在形态上与[物种名1]、[物种名2]和[物种名3]最为相似。然而，16S DNA条形码显示这四种蛙类之间存在明显差异。
