Data from: The phylogenetic relationship of geographically separated “Flectonotus” (Anura: Hemiphractidae), as revealed by molecular, behavioral, and morphological data

Phylogenetic analyses of data derived from one mitochondrial gene and one
nuclear gene show that the five species of small marsupial frogs currently
recognized as Flectonotus are in fact two distinct and not closely related
lineages. This conclusion is strongly supported by reproductive behavior
and morphological characters. Thus, we recognize the genus Fritziana
Mello-Leitão for the three species in southeastern Brazil and Flectonotus
Miranda-Ribeiro for the two species in northern South America.
