Resumo

We describe a new species of terrestrial frog of the genus Pristimantis , located in the south Andes of Ecuador. The new species is characterized by: presence of dentigerous processes of vomer that are triangular in outline; ulnar tubercles flattened and disposed in a longitudinal, fold-like row; and a distinctive ventral coloration light to dark brown with white warts. We describe the call of an adult male, a single note with an average frequency of 4.23 kHz and two partial harmonics, and an average duration of 207 ms.
