We used external morphology, advertisement call, and molecular sequences to assess the taxonomy of these species. Phylogenetic analysis of molecular data showed a well-supported monophyletic group divided into two main clades and several subclades. Specimens of Hyla madeirae (synonym of S. fuscomarginatus) and those from Serra do Cachimbo correspond to distinct subclades, while the currently valid species were grouped into a single clade. This clade showed a marked substructure, but concordance of the recognized species to subclades were limited, showing S. fuscomarginatus paraphyletic with respect to S. parkeri, S. trilineatus, S. lutzorum, and S. pusillus. The high intrapopulation and intraspecific variation found in morphological characters did not allow us to differentiate between the currently recognized species. Similarly, none of them were distinguishable in morphometric analysis or advertisement call. Based on multiple evidences, we propose the synonymy of S. parkeri, S. trilineatus, S. lutzorum, and S. pusillus with S. fuscomarginatus, the revalidation of Hyla madeirae, and describe the specimens from Serra do Cachimbo as a new species.} }
