A new species salamander of the genus Bolitoglossa is described. It is a member of the alpha group, subgenus Eladinea that occurs in relict subandean forests in the buffer zone area of Tatamá Natural National Park (PNN) on the Eastern slope of the Western Andes of Colombia in the Departamento of Risaralda. This species differs from other species of Bolitoglossa by having basal digital webs with digital depressions on tips of plantar and palmar regions. The basal digital webs are interpreted as adaptation for terrestriality in high mountain salamanders.
