First record of the Normandia Caecilian Caecilia crassisquama Taylor, 1968 (Amphibia: Gymnophiona: Caeciliidae) from Peru

We report the first record of Caecilia crassisquama Taylor, 1986 (Caeciliidae) in the Central Cordillera of the Andes, Peru. A single individual was found at the Tabaconas Namballe National Sanctuary, Cajamarca department, Northern Peru. The specimen was collected in a montane forest at an altitude of approximately 1,990 m. It was identified mainly by the count of primary grooves, the absence of secondary grooves, and other morphological characters. This represents the southernmost record for the species at 345.5 km from the type locality in Ecuador. We also present the coloration in life of the species. Our record increases the number of Caecilia species known in Peru to seven.
