Synonyms: Eleutherodactylus cantitans

Wikipedia Abstract

Pristimantis cantitans is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is endemic to Venezuela and only known from its type locality, the summit of Cerro Yaví (2,150 m (7,050 ft) above sea level), a sandstone table-top mountain (tepui) in the Amazonas State. The specific name cantitans alludes to the day-and-night calling behavior of this species and is derived from the Latin cantito (=to sing often).
