A New Species ofTelmatobiusWiegmann, 1834, from the Eastern Cordillera Central of the Andes, Peru (Anura: Telmatobiidae), with Description of Its Tadpole, and Range Extension ofT. mendelsoniDe La Riva et al., 2012

Abstract

[ES] Describimos ejemplares adultos y larvas de una nueva especie de Telmatobius Wiegmann, 1834, Telmatobius mantaro, de la Cordillera Central de los Andes de Perú. Los especímenes fueron colectados en bosque húmedo montano tropical y bosque seco premontano tropical, entre 2240–3170 m de altitud, en el norte de Huancavelica y el norte de Ayacucho, donde la especie es simpátrica con Telmatobius mendelsoni De la Riva et al., 2012, cuyo rango de distribución conocido se ve ampliado en 262 km al oeste de su localidad tipo. La nueva especie tiene una longitud hocico-cloaca de 48.9–55.8 mm en tres machos adultos. Ambos sexos presentan una membrana timpánica diferenciada y anillo timpánico visible, característica que la distingue de la mayoría de otras especies de Telmatobius peruanos. Consideramos esta especie dentro de la categoría “En Peligro Crítico” de la UICN debido a su distribución restringida y su alta probabilidad de ser infectado por el hongo Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis.

[EN] We describe adult specimens and tadpoles of a new species of Telmatobius Wiegmann, 1834, Telmatobius mantaro, from the central Cordillera of the Andes in Peru. Specimens were collected in humid lower montane forests and dry lower montane forests between 2240-3170 m elevation at the northern parts of the Departments of Huancavelica and Ayacucho. We also report a range extension of 262 km west of the type locality for Telmatobius mendelsoni De la Riva et al., 2012, which was found in sympatry with T. mantaro in Ayacucho. The new species has a snout-vent length of 48.9-55.8 mm in three adult males, and both sexes have tympanic membrane differentiated and tympanic annulus visible, a feature that distinguishes the new species from the majority of other Peruvian Telmatobius. We propose to assign the IUCN category Critically Endangered to this species because of its small area of distribution and its high likelihood of being infected by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis.
