Data from: A second species of the family Allophrynidae (Amphibia: Anura)

We describe Allophryne resplendens, a new species from two localities in the Amazon rainforest of Loreto, Peru, of the family Allophrynidae, which was monotypic until this discovery. The new species can be readily differentiated from Allophryne ruthveni on the basis of dorsal and ventral coloration both in life and in preservative, transverse processes of presacral II oriented anterolaterally (oriented laterally in A. ruthveni), and 19 nucleotide autapomorphies for 761 base pairs (bp) of the mitochondrial gene 16S and 16 for 923 bp of 12S. Maximum parsimony analysis of the mitochondrial gene 12S and a fragment of up to 1060 bp of 16S supports the new species as sister to A. ruthveni.我们记述了辉绿异蟾（Allophryne resplendens）—— 一种采自秘鲁洛雷托省亚马逊雨林两处采样点的两栖动物新种，隶属于异蟾科（Allophrynidae）。该科在本次发现前仅为单型科，仅含单一物种。 该新种可通过多项特征与拉斯文异蟾（Allophryne ruthveni）轻易区分：鲜活标本与保存标本的背、腹体色差异，第2荐前椎横突呈前外侧定向（拉斯文异蟾的该结构为外侧定向），线粒体16S基因761个碱基对（base pairs，缩写bp）序列中存在19个核苷酸独有衍征，12S基因923个碱基对序列中存在16个核苷酸独有衍征。 针对线粒体12S基因以及一段最长可达1060碱基对的16S基因片段开展最大简约法分析，结果支持该新种与拉斯文异蟾互为姊妹群。
