description Background and Aims: Reports on the genus Notothylas for Mexico are scarce and are known only from few published records and herbarium specimens. This work reports for the first time Notothylas javanica in Mexico.Methods: Morphological characters of Notothylas javanica were examined under the stereo, compound and scanning electron (SEM) microscopes. Specimens collected were deposited in MEXU.Key results: This work provides descriptions, illustrations and ecological data for the species. Differences and similarities with the other species of Notothylas reported for Mexico are discussed. In addition, an identification key for the Mexican species of Notothylas is provided.Conclusions: Information compiled for Notothylas suggests that at least three species occur in Mexico. To increase the knowledge of the genus in this country, there is a need for further exploration of key areas and, additional studies on its diversity, ecology and geographical distribution.

Antecedentes y Objetivos: En México, los registros del género Notothylas se limitan a escasos reportes en la literatura y ejemplares de herbario. En este estudio, Notothylas javanica se reporta por primera vez para México.Métodos: Se examinaron los caracteres morfológicos de Notothylas javanica utilizando los microscopios estereoscópico, óptico y electrónico de barrido. Los ejemplares recolectados se depositaron en MEXU.Resultados clave: Se presenta la descripción, ilustración y datos ecológicos de la especie. Se discuten las diferencias y similitudes con las otras especies de Notothylas registradas para México. Adicionalmente, se presenta una clave para la determinación de las especies mexicanas de Notothylas.Conclusiones: La información disponible para Notothylas sugiere la presencia de al menos tres especies en México. A fin de incrementar el conocimiento del género en este país, se recomienda explorar zonas clave y, además, realizar estudios que permitan conocer su diversidad, ecología y distribución geográfica.
