We describe two new species of frogs of the genus    Pristimantis    from the eastern slopes of the Ecuadorian Andes, at Parque Nacional Llanganates. The new species are characterized by the spiny appearance typical of several species inhabiting montane forests.    Pristimantis   yanezi    sp. n . is most similar to    P.   colonensis    and    P.   incanus    but differs from both in groin coloration and by having smaller tubercles on the upper eyelids, heels, and tarsus.    Pristimantis   llanganati    sp. n . is most similar to    P.   eriphus    and    P.   chloronotus   . It can be distinguished from    P.   eriphus    by the color pattern on the scapular region and by having smaller conical tubercles on the dorsum.    Pristimantis   chloronotus    differs from    P.   llanganati    sp. n . in having a pair of sinuous paravertebral folds. Both new species occur in a region with few amphibian collections and nothing is known about their abundance and ecology. Therefore, it is recommended to assign them to the Data Deficient Red List category. Updated figures of species richness of    Pristimantis    among biogeographic regions in Ecuador are also presented.    Pristimantis    reach their highest diversity in Montane Forests of the eastern versant of the Andes. Its species richness across regions cannot be explained by regional area, elevation, temperature, or precipitation. Political endemism in    Pristimantis    is higher than that of other terrestrial vertebrates.
