Cl. Caridad, 8. 2º, pta. 8. 29680 Estepona. Málaga. Spain. *C.e.: [email protected] Fecha de aceptación: 27 de julio de 2020. Key words: Adenomera coca, Chapare, conservation, distribution, New record, preliminary list, Stenocercus prionotus.

Resumen: Se realiza un listado preliminar de las especies de anfibios y reptiles de Villa Tunari, Provincia Chapare, Departamento de Cochabamba, Bolivia. Los datos se obtuvieron entre 2017 y 2018. La lista taxonómica incluye 27 especies, 11 anfibios y 16 reptiles, agrupados en 13 familias. Las zonas de muestreo se eligieron de acuerdo con sus características: Z1) zona natural, dominada por bosques y pequeñas corrientes de agua; Z2) zona antrópica, con casas y construcciones asentadas en las proximidades del río Espíritu Santo. Stenocercus prionotus se registra por primera vez para el Departamento de Cochabamba y se proporcionan datos adicio- nales para especies poco conocidas, como Adenomera coca.
