Description

Allobates bacurau is distinguished from A. marchesianus (Melin 1941) by lacking basal webbing between Toes II and III and by the absence of strong sexual dimorphism in color of ventral surfaces of preserved and live specimens (basal webbing present between Toes II and III in A. marchesianus; throat and chest of males strongly pigmented, appearing dark gray; ventral surfaces of preserved females uniformly cream, bright yellow in life).
