%X this paper presents a review of the geographical distribution of chiasmocleis albopunctata (boettger, 1885), based on data from literature, scientific collections, and field notes. our reviewing significantly enlarges the distribution of the species within the brazilian territory, with new records for the states of bahia, maranh£¿o, and tocantins. among all species of the genus, c. albopunctata can be considered the one with the widest latitudinal and altitudinal ranges, as well as greater environmental plasticity.
