We present new information on the distribution of the marsupial frog Gastrotheca  testudinea (Jiménez  de la  Espada, 1870)    in Ecuador.     We  provide  the  first  record   from the province of Cañar, and  the  southernmost  locality  for Ecuador (which also corresponds  to the   third  known   report from  the province  of Zamora-Chinchipe). In addition,  we review the elevation range of the species, and propose to change the  lowest elevation limit of G. testudinea from 1100 to 700 m.
