Inthis study, the genetic substructure and morphology of the species was evaluated. A nuclear marker and mitochondrial maker were used to examine phylogeographic structure and to estimategenetic distances. Two statistical measurement analyses were applied to morphological data.
These data recovered two morphologically distinct phylogeographic groups corresponding to populations on the eastern and western slopes of the Andes. Further, these eastern and western Andean slope populations of are 8.5 % divergent using sequence data from cytochrome- (0.8 % divergent in the interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein gene).
Populationscurrently assigned to constitutea species complex. The name is here restricted to western Andean slope populations. Populations on the eastern slope of the Andes are assigned to a new species, to which the authors assign the name sp.nov.
在本研究中，对该物种的遗传亚结构和形态进行了评估。使用了一个核标记和一个线粒体标记来检查系统地理结构并估计遗传距离。对形态学数据应用了两种统计测量分析方法。
这些数据恢复了两个形态上不同的系统地理群体，分别对应于安第斯山脉东坡和西坡的种群。此外，根据细胞色素的数据，安第斯山脉东坡和西坡的这些种群有8.5%的差异（在光感受器间类视黄醇结合蛋白基因中有0.8%的差异）。
目前归入该物种的种群构成一个物种复合体。这里将该物种名称限定于安第斯山脉西坡的种群。安第斯山脉东坡的种群被归入一个新物种，作者将其命名为新物种。
