Etymology: The genus Chaltenobatrachus is derived from Chaltén, the native name of the mountain located near where the frog was found. There is no officially published etymology for the species epithet “grandisonae”. However, the epithet “grandisonae” is presumably from Alice G. C. Grandison, a colleague of John D. Lynch (Lynch 1975). |
