"Elosia duidensis Rivero is reassigned to the tribe Eleutherodactylini (subfamily Telmatobiinae) because it lacks the distinctive suite of features of the Elosiinae. A new genus, Dischiodactylus, is proposed for Elosia duidensis. The relationships of the genus are obscure but may be with one of the three species groups of Eleutherodactylus distributed in eastern Brazil"--P. [1].
