Andrea Gonzalez replaces anti-corruption crusader shot in the head by suspected Colombian hitmen.
The running-mate of a murdered Ecuadorian politician is to contest the presidential election in his place.
Ms Gonzalez, 36, whose career has mainly focused on environmental issues, is due to take part in Sunday's presidential debate in the capital. The candidate for the vice-presidency would come from "the most trusted of those who have shared the struggles of comrade Fernando Villavicencio", the party added.
Mr Villavicencio's campaign focused on corruption and gangs, and was one of only a few candidates to allege links between organised crime and government officials in Ecuador.
