Changes to habitat and distribution
I feel like this section should have information on what countries this frog is found in. This information is already in the introduction section and I think it would be good to include it in the habitat and distribution section.

"S. sila is found in the lowlands of south west Costa Rica, Panama, and Northern Colombia and prefer..."

I also think the section should include what elevation the frogs are usually found at.

"These frogs are found between the elevations of 10-970 m."

Formatting Edits
I revised the “Close Relatives and Hybridization” section by creating a “Population Structure, Speciation, and Phylogeny” section and adding the original section as a subsection. I also moved the “Conservation” section at the end of the entry in between the “Habitat and Distribution” and “Population Structure, Speciation, and Phylogeny” sections to make the chronological reading of the entry easier. Overall, I found the discussion of the frog's acoustic calls to be thoughtful and informative. A suggestion would be to include a discussion on the physiological mechanisms explaining the production of the frog's call signals. ~ Hoonji2022 (talk) 20:44, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

Peer Review
Overall, I think that this article is very through and well-written, especially the sections about the frog's cryptic acoustic calls! One small thing I changed was the section header from "male calling" to "mate calling", to make it more clear what the purpose of the calls is. I also found an additional journal source talking about this frog's parasites. So I added a sentence, as well as the corresponding citation, to the parasite section talking about it. I was wondering, however, if there was any more information you could add to the diet section because it appears a bit wanting. B1deng (talk) 22:50, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
