McKinley County (Gehlbach 1965. Proc. U.S. Nat. Mus. 116
:,7505]:243-332), the surviving specimen of which was poorly
preserved and unidentifiable by Gehlbach (op. cir.). This new
Cibola County locality is ca. 56 km SE of Nutria, and more or less
contiguous upper elevation forested habitats associated with the
Zuni Mountains connect them, suggesting the species may be more
widespread in the region. However, this northern region is separated
from populations to the south by large areas of lower elevation
woodland,<savanna,and grassland habitats (Dick-Peddie 1993.
New Mexieo Vegetation, Past Present, and Future. University of
Yew Mexico Press, Albuquerque. 244 pp.).

HYLA ROSENBERGI (Rosenberg's Gladiator Treefrog).

.Maceo, vereda Las Brisas, Quebrada Santa Barbara (06"32'38.8"N,
74"38'24.8"W, ca. 500 m elev.). 28 July 2003. Museo de
Herpetologia Universidad de Antioquia, Medellin, Colombia
(MHUA 2676, male) and 20 March 2004 (MHUA 3233, male).
All collected by J. C. Arredondo and M. Rivera-C. and verified by
J. D. Lynch. Adults were found on leaf litter at the edge of a stream
in secondary forest. This species is distributed disjuntly in western
P a n a c ~ and
i in Colombia (Kluge 1979. Occas. Pap. Mus. Zool.
Univ. Michigan 688: 1-23). Previously known only from the
following localities in Colombia: Socorro, upper Rio Sinu (Cordoba
Department); Lower Rio Calima and vereda El Danubio (Valle
del Cauca Department); and La Guayacana (Narifio Department)
(Kluge. opcir.; Vargas-S. and Castro-H. 1999. Caldasia 21:95-
109). First records from Antioquia Department and Colombian
Cordillera Central, extend the distribution toward the eastern region
of Colombia and fill a hiatus between its nearest known localities
(ca. 215 km SE from Cordoba Department and ca. 263 km NE
from Valle del Cauca Department).
