  • Diet of Melanophryniscus Paraguayensis (Anura: Bufonidae): an Endemic Species to Paraguay
    Herpetological Conservation and Biology 16(2):251–258. Submitted: 5 October 2020; Accepted: 3 May 2021; Published 31 August 2021. DIET OF MELANOPHRYNISCUS PARAGUAYENSIS (ANURA: BUFONIDAE): AN ENDEMIC SPECIES TO PARAGUAY KARINA NÚÑEZ1,3, MARTA DURÉ2, GRISELDA ZÁRATE1, FÁTIMA ORTIZ1, AND MEDES MENDOZA1 1Universidad Nacional de Asunción, Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Departamento de Biología, Colección Zoológica, San Lorenzo, Paraguay 2Centro de Ecología Aplicada del Litoral, Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CECOAL, CONICET-UNNE)/ Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales y Agrimensura (FACENA-UNNE), Corrientes, Argentina 3Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract.—Melanophryniscus paraguayensis (no common name) is an endemic toad of the central grasslands in the eastern region of Paraguay. Details about its natural history are poorly understood and it is categorized nationally as Vulnerable. This work describes the diet composition of this species and the relationship between toad body size and the number and volume of prey consumed. We analyzed the stomach content of 162 individuals, using the stomach flushing technique, after measuring and weighing them. For each prey category, we calculated the volume, number, and frequency of occurrence, and we estimated the relative importance index (IRI) with these data. We also estimated the standardized Shannon Diversity Index and Levins Niche Breadth Index for prey categories, and we analyzed the correlation between size of the anurans and prey size. Seventy-six individuals had identifiable content, which consisted of 1,357 prey classified into 16 categories, mostly at the order level. Ants and mites were the prey taxa with the greatest contribution in number and frequency and represent the most important prey based on IRI.

    Mapping the Global Emergence of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, the Amphibian Chytrid Fungus Deanna H. Olson, David M. Aanensen, Kathryn L. Ronnenberg, Christopher I. Powell, Susan F. Walker, Jon Bielby, Trenton W. J. Garner, George Weaver, the Bd Mapping Group, and Matthew C. Fisher Supplemental Information Taxonomic Notes Genera were assigned to families for summarization (Table 1 in main text) and analysis (Table 2 in main text) based on the most recent available comprehensive taxonomic references (Frost et al. 2006, Frost 2008, Frost 2009, Frost 2011). We chose recent family designations to explore patterns of Bd susceptibility and occurrence because these classifications were based on both genetic and morphological data, and hence may more likely yield meaningful inference. Some North American species were assigned to genus according to Crother (2008), and dendrobatid frogs were assigned to family and genus based on Grant et al. (2006). Eleutherodactylid frogs were assigned to family and genus based on Hedges et al. (2008); centrolenid frogs based on Cisneros-Heredia et al. (2007). For the eleutherodactylid frogs of Central and South America and the Caribbean, older sources count them among the Leptodactylidae, whereas Frost et al. (2006) put them in the family Brachycephalidae. More recent work (Heinicke et al. 2007) suggests that most of the genera that were once “Eleutherodactylus” (including those species currently assigned to the genera Eleutherodactylus, Craugastor, Euhyas, Phrynopus, and Pristimantis and assorted others), may belong in a separate, or even several different new families. Subsequent work (Hedges et al. 2008) has divided them among three families, the Craugastoridae, the Eleutherodactylidae, and the Strabomantidae, which were used in our classification.

  • Prey Consumption of the Neotropical Frog Engystomops Pustulosus (Anura: Leptodactylidae) in Northwestern Venezuela

We tested the hypotheses of a relationship between frog mouth width (MW) and prey size, and between the lack of teeth and diet specialization in this genus. We also explored sexual differences in diet composition, and the relationship betwen female fecundity (number of ova and volume of the ova mass) and the total volume of prey in the stomach. We analyzed stomach contents, identified prey items according to class, subclass, order, or family level, and measured their maximum length and width. Three categories of arthropods dominated the diet: Termitidae (termites), Parasintengona (mites), and Formicidae (ants). Both sexes ate Termitidae and Parasintengona in larger proportions than expected by chance, but only females ate more Formicidae than expected. Males ate more items and more prey categories than females. We found no association between MW (all together and by sex) and prey size or between female fecundity and total volume of prey in the stomach.

  • The Tadpole and Advertisement Call of Physalaemus Aguirrei Bokermann, 1966 (Amphibia, Anura, Leptodactylidae)
    Short Notes 197 The tadpole and advertisement call of Physalaemus aguirrei Bokermann, 1966 (Amphibia, Anura, Leptodactylidae) Bruno V.S. Pimenta, Carlos Alberto Gonçalves Cruz Museu Nacional/UFRJ, Departamento de Vertebrados, Quinta da Boa Vista, 20940-040, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil e-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] The neotropical frog genus Physalaemus is currently composed of 41 valid species (Frost, 2002) arranged in four groups (Lynch, 1970). The Physalaemus cuvieri group is the most diversified, with 20 species occurring from northern to southern South America (Frost, 2002). Information about tadpoles of nine species and vocalizations of fifteen species of this group are available in literature (see Bokermann, 1962, 1966a, 1966b, 1967; Barrio, 1964, 1965; Langone, 1989; Heyer et al., 1990; Rossa-Feres and Jim, 1993; Duellman, 1997; Perroti, 1997; Cannatella et al., 1998; Tárano, 2001). However, Physalaemus aguirrei is a poorly known species of this group, occurring in the Atlantic Forest in the states of Espírito Santo and Bahia, Brazil (Van Sluys, 1998; Frost, 2002). According to Bokermann (1966a), this species can be found dwelling on the forest floor litter but breeds in temporary ponds in open habitats. Feio et al. (1999) pointed out that P. aguirrei, P. maximus, P. olfersii,andP. soaresi could compose a new species group, due to morphological similarities, and their forest breeding habits but they lacked necessary evidence to confirm this suggestion. Herein, we follow Lynch’s (1970) organisation of the P. cuvieri group. The purpose of this paper is to provide information on tadpole morphology, advertisement call structure and habitat of P.
