The hylid frog Trachycephalus imitatrix is known from the Atlantic Forest of Brazil and Argentina. Here, we report a new locality for the species from an Atlantic Forest fragment in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The new record extends the distribution of T. imitatrix 232 km to the northeast. We propose more stringent protection of this newly documented site for T. imitatrix.
