Objective: Document the rst record of the well Dendropsophus columbianus frog in low montane rain forest (bp-MB), in the department of Chocó, Colombia. Materials and Methods: During a rapid assessment of the anuran community in the municipality of Carmen de Atrato (5°53’42.2’’N, 76°08’38.9’’W, 1763 msnm), through the method of searching for visual encounters (VES, for its acronym in English), a specimen of D. Columbianus, was detected in an area with strong agricultural and livestock pressure. Results: A female of D. columbianus was observed on a patch of vegetation surrounding an abandoned pond. The indivi- dual was collected, determined and deposited in the Scienti c Collection of Zoological Reference of Chocó-Herpetology. Conclusion: This record becomes the rst for the department of Chocó.
