[HTML][HTML] Multilocus phylogeny of Paratelmatobiinae (Anura: Leptodactylidae) reveals strong spatial structure and previously unknown diversity in the Atlantic Forest …
Abstract The Brazilian Atlantic Forest harbors high levels of anuran diversity and endemism,
including several taxa restricted to small geographic ranges. Here, we provide a multilocus …

Life on the edge: tadpoles of Cycloramphidae (Amphibia; Anura), anatomy, systematics, functional morphology, and comments on the evolution of semiterrestrial …
The evolutionary success of anurans can be partially explained by the occurrence of free‐
living larvae. Tadpoles occupy several distict habitats, including the terrestrial environment …

RO Gómez, GF Turazzini - Journal of Systematic Palaeontology, 2021 - Taylor & Francis
South American horned frogs (Ceratophryidae), with their large heads, wide gapes and fang-
like teeth, are among the most charismatic, best-known and well-studied neobatrachian …

Colonization rather than fragmentation explains the geographical distribution and diversification of treefrogs endemic to Brazilian shield sky islands
Aim Geographical patterns of montane biodiversity worldwide are related to biotic and
abiotic factors, such as historical climate dynamics and species dispersal capabilities, which …

Historical biogeography and multi-trait evolution in miniature toadlets of the genus Brachycephalus (Anura: Brachycephalidae)
Evolutionary changes towards a miniaturized body plan may directly affect other important
phenotypic traits related to the physiology, behaviour and ecology of organisms. The frog …

Molecular phylogeny of Ischnocnema (Anura: Brachycephalidae) with the redefinition of its series and the description of two new species
We present a new phylogenetic hypothesis for Ischnocnema, a Neotropical brachycephaloid
genus of ground-dwelling direct-develo** frogs. We performed Bayesian inference …

Revisiting the Vocal Repertoire of Thoropa miliaris and T. taophora (Anura: Cycloramphidae): Insights into the Acoustic Divergence among Lineages
Calls are the most conspicuous form of communication in anurans. They are generally
species specific, mediate mating behavior and, as such, are often emitted during the …

[HTML][HTML] Cryptic diversity in Brazilian endemic monkey frogs (Hylidae, Phyllomedusinae, Pithecopus) revealed by multispecies coalescent and integrative approaches
Even though Brazil is the world leader in amphibian diversity, a significant part of its richness
remains unknown or hidden under cryptic taxa. Here, we used model-based species …
