Here we present a new record of the little toad Proceratophrys moratoi for the state of São Paulo, in themunicipality of Bauru. This record extends to the known distribution of P. moratoi around 80 km northwestern from its typelocality and around 115 km west from other known populations of this species. It also corresponds to the lowest elevationwhere the species has been found, approximately 200 m altitude below the known records.
