Three new species of Pristimantis (Lissamphibia, Anura) from montane forests of the Cordillera Yanachaga in Central Peru

Describimos tres especies nuevas de Pristimantis provenientes de la Cordillera Yanachaga, en los Andes del centro del Peru. Los analisis de las secuencias de ADN mitocondrial de genes ribosomales muestran que una de las especies esta cercanamente relacionada con P. bipunctatus (Grupo P. conspicillatus), la segunda especie con P. stictogaster (Grupo P. peruvianus) y la tercera con varias especies del Grupo P. unistrigatus. Las primeras dos especies son morfologicamente similares a sus respectivas especies hermanas, pero sin embargo habitan en elevaciones mas bajas. Se conocen 29 especies de ranas del g´nero Phrynopus y Pristimantis en las inmediaciones de la Cordillera Yanachaga. Esta diversidad de especies, particularmente de Pristimantis, es elevada en comparacion con otras localidades de caracteristicas similares en el Peru; sin embargo, es menor a la reportada en la vertiente occidental de los Andes del Ecuador.
