COMUNICAÇÃO CIENTÍFICA Notas sobre as séries-tipo de Holoaden bradei B. Lutz e Holoaden luederwaldti Miranda-Ribeiro (Anura, Brachycephalidae) Ulisses Caramaschi & José P. Pombal Jr Departamento de Vertebrados, Museu Nacional, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Quinta da Boa Vista, 20940-040 Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] ABSTRACT. Notes on the type-series of Holoaden bradei B. Lutz and Holoaden luederwaldti Miranda-Ribeiro (Anuraa, Brachycephalidae). The type-series of Holoaden bradei B. Lutz, 1958 housed at Museu Nacional, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, is examined. Besides the reference to a “Type, 2 Cotypes, 84 Paratypes” (summing 87 specimens) and to “Out of 90 specimens” measured in the original description of the species, only 74 specimens were found. Since no one specimen was originally numbered, the holotype (or “type”) and paratypes of the species and its type-locality are realized. The previous designation of the lectotype for Holoaden luederwaldti Miranda-Ribeiro, 1920, is reinstated. KEY WORDS. Amphibia; type locality; lectotype; taxonomy. RESUMO. A série-tipo de Holoaden bradei B. Lutz, 1958 depositada no Museu Nacional, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, é examinada. Apesar da referência a “Tipo, 2 Cotipos, 84 Parátipos” (somando 87 exemplares) e a “90 espécimes medidos” na descrição original, apenas 74 exemplares foram encontrados. Desde que nenhum exemplar foi originalmente numerado, o holótipo (ou “tipo”) e os parátipos da espécie e sua localidade-tipo são atualizadas. A prévia designação do lectótipo de Holoaden luederwaldti Miranda-Ribeiro, 1920, é reafirmada. PALAVRAS-CHAVE. Amphibia; localidade-tipo; lectótipo; taxonomia.

However, the author mentions a variation in the Frost, 2017). The reproductive aspects reported for the number of eggs for some spawns and the use of more than species of this family are marked by the uniqueness of one leaf for confection in some nests (Lescure, 1975). egg deposition, placed on green leaves hanging under The nests described by Lescure in 1975 are probably standing water, where the tadpoles will complete their from Phyllomedusa vailantii as reported by Lescure et development (Haddad & Sazima, 1992; Pombal & al.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract We describe the external morphology and oral cavity of the tadpoles of Bokermannohyla caramaschii and B. diamantina respectively from the states of Espírito Santo and Bahia, Brazil. Larvae of both species are distinguished from each other by external characters such as body shape, labial tooth-row formula, number of marginal papillae, coloration and internal oral anatomy features. Some of the character states of the tadpoles of B. caramaschii and B. diamantina that are shared with all other described tadpoles of the Bokermannohyla circumdata group, such as the absence/reduction of small flaps with accessory labial teeth laterally in the oral disc, and the absence/reduction of submarginal papillae, may represent mor- phological synapomorphies of this species group, or at least of some internal clade. -

Restriction Fragment Analysis of the Ribosomal DNA of Paratelmatobius and Scythrophrys Species (Anura, Leptodactylidae)
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 26, 2, 139-143 (2003) Copyright by the Brazilian Society of Genetics. Printed in Brazil www.sbg.org.br Research Article Restriction fragment analysis of the ribosomal DNA of Paratelmatobius and Scythrophrys species (Anura, Leptodactylidae) Luciana B. Lourenço1, Paulo C.A. Garcia2 and Shirlei M. Recco-Pimentel1 1Departamento de Biologia Celular, Instituto de Biologia, Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP), Campinas, SP, Brazil. 2Instituto de Biociências, Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), Rio Claro, SP, Brazil. Abstract Physical maps of the ribosomal RNA gene 28S of species belonging to the genera Paratelmatobius and Scythrophrys were constructed, using five restriction endonucleases. The restriction sites for Bam HI, Bgl II, Bst EII, and Eco RI had similar positions in all species, although there were interspecific differences in the size of the restriction fragments obtained. An additional Pvu II site was found in Scythrophrys specimens from Piraquara (State of Paraná, Brazil) and from São Bento do Sul (State of Santa Catarina, Brazil), but not in the Scythrophrys specimens from Rancho Queimado (State of Santa Catarina, Brazil). This finding is in agreement with the hypothesis regarding the existence of two species in the genus Scythrophrys. On the other hand, the extra Bst EII site considered in the literature to be a synapomorphy for the subfamilies Leptodactylinae and Telmatobiinae was not observed in the genera Paratelmatobius and Scythrophrys, which brings new questions about some taxonomic classifications that include Paratelmatobius in Leptodactylinae and Scythrophrys in Telmatobiinae. Interspecific variation was observed in the size of the restriction fragments analyzed and, in the case of group I Scythrophrys, there was also a variation between the individuals of the two populations. -
