Abstract:	We describe a new species of medium-sized (SVL in female = 38.7 mm; in males from 23.8 to 26.4 mm) terrestrial frog of the genus Pristimantis from subtropical forests of the Cordillera of Kutukú, southeastern Ecuador, at elevations of 1581‑1820 m. This species, Pristimantis almendariz sp. nov. is assigned to the subgenus Hypodictyon, ridens species series. The new species differs from other species of the ridens series by its distinctive dorsal spots, absence of tympanic membrane, presence of enlarged conical tubercles on the eyelid, prominent interorbital tubercle, and silver iris with black reticulations.
