Abstract

We report the first record of Centrolene notostictum for Venezuela, the first records of Centrolene venezuelense and Hyalinobatrachium pallidum for Zulia state, and extend the distribution of Hyalinobatrachium tatayoi and Espadarana andina based on specimens coming from the eastern versant of the Sierra de Perijá in northwestern Venezuela. The altitudinal ranges of all species are extended, and comments and notes on natural history provided.
