Comentários: Breure & Borrero, 2019 destaca que”Linhares & Vera (2012: 186, 197) argued that Santa Librada may correspond to a location in the region of Sarare, Norte de Santander, at an elevation of ~ 750 m, with which we concur. No additional material has been located since the type collection. The unique morphology and colouration of this species separates it readily from all other Colombian Drymaeus”
