The specific collection site was never formally reported, which hampers precise dating of these specimens. Still, the name Bufo servatus was erected based on the external morphology of one of the mummified specimen. A tomography of similarly preserved specimen revealed a preserved skeleton, soft- tissues and gut contents. We analyze here the holotype of Bufo servatus using CT-scanning in order to investigate its potentially preserved internal features.

MOURA, FABIANA R. COSTA, LUIZ E. ANELLI & Academy Section: Paleontology IVAN NUNES Abstract: The frog clade Neobatrachia or “advanced frogs” represents more than 95% e20191560 of the diversity within Anura. The neobatrachian fossil record is incomplete due to the small size and fragile nature of their bones but provides some clues on the time and rate of the current diversifi cation of modern-day amphibians. The Crato Formation (Aptian) of 93 northeastern Brazil is known for the presence of, at least, fi ve species of neobatrachian (Suppl. 2) fossils. Herein, we describe a well-preserved fossil that represents a new neobatrachian 93(Suppl. 2) taxon from the Crato Formation (Cretaceous) in the Araripe Basin, northeastern Brazil, DOI and perform phylogenetic analysis to assess its higher-level relationships. The new 10.1590/0001-3765202120201560 specimen is an almost complete and articulated skeleton with soft tissue preservation. Phylogenetic analysis recovered the specimen nested in the clade Hyloidea and our results highlight the remarkable value of the Crato Formation as a Laggerstätte. Key words: Amphibia, fossil anuran, Cretaceous, Primaevorana cratensis. INTRODUCTION 2011). Such incompleteness provides few clues on the time and rate of the current diversifi cation Among anurans, the clade Acosmanura Savage of modern-day amphibians (Roelants et al.

  • New Material of Beelzebufo, a Hyperossified Frog (Amphibia: Anura) from the Late Cretaceous of Madagascar
    New Material of Beelzebufo, a Hyperossified Frog (Amphibia: Anura) from the Late Cretaceous of Madagascar Susan E. Evans1*, Joseph R. Groenke2, Marc E. H. Jones1,3, Alan H. Turner2, David W. Krause2 1 Department of Cell and Developmental Biology, University College London, London, United Kingdom, 2 Department of Anatomical Sciences, Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, New York, United States of America, 3 School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, The University of Adelaide, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia Abstract The extant anuran fauna of Madagascar is exceptionally rich and almost completely endemic. In recent years, many new species have been described and understanding of the history and relationships of this fauna has been greatly advanced by molecular studies, but very little is known of the fossil history of frogs on the island. Beelzebufo ampinga, the first named pre-Holocene frog from Madagascar, was described in 2008 on the basis of numerous disarticulated cranial and postcranial elements from the Upper Cretaceous (Maastrichtian) Maevarano Formation of Madagascar. These specimens documented the presence of a hyperossified taxon that differed strikingly from extant Malagasy frogs in its large size and heavy coarse cranial exostosis. Here we describe and analyse new, articulated, and more complete material of the skull, vertebral column, and hind limb, as well as additional isolated elements discovered since 2008. mCT scans allow a detailed understanding of both internal and external morphology and permit a more accurate reconstruction. The new material shows Beelzebufo to have been even more bizarre than originally interpreted, with large posterolateral skull flanges and sculptured vertebral spine tables. The apparent absence of a tympanic membrane, the strong cranial exostosis, and vertebral morphology suggest it may have burrowed during seasonally arid conditions, which have been interpreted for the Maevarano Formation from independent sedimentological and taphonomic evidence.
