The distributions of Leptodactylus ocellatus, L. chaquensis, and L. macrosternum in Bolivia are reviewed and discussed. Leptodactylus chaquensis and L. ocellatus are easily distinguished morphologically but L. chaquensis and L. macrosternum are indistinguishable. In Bolivia, L. ocellatus is known only from a single locality in the Paraguay River basin, which is reported here for the first time. Leptodactylus chaquensis occurs in the Chaco region of southeastern Bolivia, but it is unknown to what extent this species enters the Cerrado. The distribution boundaries and putative overlapping areas of L. chaquensis and L. macrosternum are unknown.
