Abstract

Here we reported the presence of the strabomantid frog Pristimantis reichlei in the Brazilian territory. The distribution of this newly described species was expected to Brazil, however, no information was available so far. The diversity of species in this genus may be greater in Acre state, and we suggest that further studies be conducted to confirm this hypothesis.
