DISTRIBUTION: In our region, Eleutherodactylus planirostris was first documented in southeastern Texas in 1999 with a vouchered specimen in the Texas Cooperative Wildlife Collection (TCWC 83067) from the town of La Marque, on the mainland portion of Galveston County. Since then, E. planirostris has also been unofficially recorded in Harris and Nueces counties, all along the Gulf Coast. Ref: Tom Lott – Cascabel
