    (2008) Maneyro, Raul; Naya, Daniel E.; Baldo, Diego
    A new species of bufonid toad of the genus Melanopryniscus from northern Uruguay is described. It is included in the M. moreirae group and its external morphology is similar to Melanopryniscus sanmartini. Melanopryniscus sp. nov. is distinguished by having a light brown dorsal colorationa with six darker longitudinal glandular ridges on the dorsal surface of the body and the gular region uniformly black.
