Descriptive statistics for morphometric measurements of species of the Osteocephalus buckleyi complex. Mean ± SD is given with range below. Bold figures are averages for individuals of all populations. Abbreviations are: SVL = snout-vent length; FOOT = foot length; HL = head length; HW = head width; ED = eye diameter; TD = tympanum diameter; TL = tibia length; FL = femur length. All measurements are in mm.
