It was an Epipedobates - and had an odd 'second name' - and I think it was near to hahneli in the book...I think  But with 30 species to choose from...
EDIT: Some more pics!

A few other epips (I think), don't know what they were - but camera battery was flat 
Many toads, frogs and treefrogs.
Amphibs are easier to find than most other herps, just keep looking at the forest floor or between leaves of plants while walking through the forest. At night, tree frogs are hopping around on the branches.
We did find a vine snake (Oxybelis), but too quick sadly

Great pics! I am positively green with envy, what great places to visit. Galapogos Islands....home of the birth of the evolution theory. My very own religion!!
I loved the spider shot with the hand
