Range Description

This species is known to occur in Amazonian Ecuador, northeastern Peru, and Amazonian Colombia. Further research is needed to determine whether the species that occurs in French Guiana is P. petersi, P. freibergi, or an undescribed species (Funk et al., 2008). We temporarily include this population in P. petersi's account until its taxonomic status can be clarified. It occurs between 89 and 1200 masl in Ecuador.
