A new species of Miranda-Ribeiro, 1920 (Anura, Odontophrynidae) from Southern Amazonia, Brazil.

Based on concordant differences in morphology, male advertisement call, and 16S mtDNA barcode distance, we describe a new species of from southern Amazonia, in the states of Mato Grosso and Pará, Brazil. The new species is most similar to and but differs from these species by its proportionally larger eyes and features of the advertisement call. Additionally, genetic distance between the new species and its congeners is 3.0-10.4% based on a fragment of the 16S rRNA gene, which is greater than the threshold typically characterizing distinct species of anurans. Using an integrative approach (molecular, bioacoustics, and adult morphology), we were able to distinguish the new species from other congeneric species. The new species is known only from the type locality where it is threatened by illegal logging and gold mining as well as hydroelectric dams.
