Abstract
Based on the analysis of the type specimens and recently collected specimens, the taxonomic status of Phyllomedusa ayeaye (B. Lutz, 1966) and Phyllomedusa itacolomi Caramaschi, Cruz & Feio, 2006 is reevaluated. We concluded that both species are morphologically indistinguishable therefore the name Phyllomedusa itacolomi is designated as a junior synonym of Phyllomedusa ayeaye. Additionally, we suggest the removal of P. ayeaye from Red Lists of threatened species.
