RESUMEN
We describe a new species, a medium size terrestrial frog (LRC 21.7‑24.9 mm in females, and 15.2‑17.8 mm in males); belong to the Pristimantis genus, from the sandstone plateau of the Cordillera del Condor at southeastern Ecuador, at 2300 m high. The new species differs from its congeners in Ecuador for its distinctive coloration pattern, ochraceous brown dorsal surface with numerous yellow spots, tympanic membrane, short fingers of the front and rear legs, and exclusive microhabitats in terrestrial bromeliads. They release modulated frequency and long calls, compoused of 6‑8 notes and 1 harmonic. The description of Pristimantis paquishae sp. nov., is the result of a summary herpetofauna information in one of the remote and less known sandstone plateaus in the Cordillera del Condor
