This observation lies outside the range iNat has for this species. This could mean iNat's range is wrong, the ID is wrong, a vagrant occurrence, or a range expansion!

Everyone can see the coordinates unless the taxon is threatened.
Obscured
Public coordinates shown as a random point within 10KM of the true coordinates. True coordinates are only visible to you and the curators of projects to which you add the observation.
private
Coordinates completely hidden from public maps, true coordinates only visible to you and the curators of projects to which you add the observation. Observations with private coordinates will still be used to verify place check lists.
Welcome to iNat! I'm afraid I can't help with South American herps, but there are numerous people tracking the Global Amphibian Biolblitz who can, so if you add your observation to that project you may get some help.
Nope, especially as I don't want to be over-confident in the ID assertion of this species. I've gone through the identotron for the area, and couldn't find anything with that saddle on the back ...
Assuming it's the right species, it may be transient into the Peruvian amazon.
The data quality assessment is a summary of an observation's accuracy. All
observations start as "casual" grade, and achieve
"research" grade when
the iNat community agrees with the observer's ID, where an "agreeing"
identification is one that matches exactly or is of a child taxon of the
observer's ID. For example, if Scott says it's a mammal and Ken-ichi
says it's Homo sapiens, then Ken-ichi agrees with Scott.
the observation has a date
the observation is georeferenced (i.e. has lat/lon coordinates)
the observation has a photo
Observations will revert to "casual" grade if the above conditions aren't met or
the community agrees the location doesn't looks accurate (e.g. monkeys in the middle of the ocean, hippos in office buildings, etc.)
the community agrees the organism isn't wild/naturalized (e.g. captive or cultivated by humans or intelligent space aliens)

Quite far out of range for Marbled Four-eyed Frog (Pleurodema marmoratum), but I'm not familiar with this frog http://www.inaturalist.org/observations/identotron?observation_id=72444#place=7513&taxon=23208&q=
Hey Phillip - this is one of the species the IUCN Amphibian Specialist Group is currently assessing: http://www.inaturalist.org/projects/peru-amphibian-redlist-assessment-forum/assessments/76-pleurodema-marmoratum
Do you have any comments on this assessment based on your experience with this species?
