A New Species of Marsupial Frog (Anura: Hylidae: Gastrotheca) A
new species of Gastrotheca from the southern end of the
Cordillera Azul in Peru seems to be most closely related to G.
lateollota known only from the Cordillera Huancabamba in
northern Peru. Both of these species and G. marsupiata,
monticola and peruana produce tadpoles, whereas the other
species of Gastrotheea in Peruvian Andes have direct
development. Edgar Lehr, William E. Duellman, and Cesar Aguilar.
