Neotropical toads from the Rhinella margaritifera species group have been considered a taxonomic puzzle for long time. Because of high morphological similarity and an unknown number undescribed taxa among this group, we did extensive search character distribution within all nominal taxa. Herein describe parecis sp. nov. new Southern Brazilian Amazon. We provide diagnosis, morphometric comparisons with similar species, molecular phylogenetic hypothesis on relationships species. is assigned to...
The description of Amazophrynella minuta was published in 1941 by the Swedish naturalist Douglas Melin based on material from Taracuá (Amazonas state, Brazil). This very brief and morphology few specimens with diagnostic characters color variation not well defined. Moreover, type series is currently poor state conservation. Consequently, taxonomic ambiguity surrounds nominal taxon A. minuta, which hampers many unnamed congeneric species. Herein, we redescribe recently collected locality,...
Boana hobbsi is a poorly known hylid frog currently placed within the punctata group. Yet, morphological, ecological and bioacoustic traits do not support this placement, with no molecular data being available to date test hypothesis. Based on newly collected mitochondrial DNA sequences, morphological review field observations, we provide new insight into phylogenetic relationships, variations geographic distribution of B. hobbsi. Our findings reveal that nested (with strong support)...
Abstract Conservation funding is currently limited; cost‐effective conservation solutions are essential. We suggest that the thousands of field stations worldwide can play key roles at frontline biodiversity and have high intrinsic value. assessed stations’ return on investment explored impact COVID‐19. surveyed leaders across tropical regions host primate research; 157 in 56 countries responded. Respondents reported improved habitat quality reduced hunting rates over 80% lower operational...
Abstract The emergence of Zika virus (ZIKV) in Latin America brought to the fore longstanding concerns that forests bordering urban areas may provide a gateway for arbovirus spillback from humans wildlife. To bridge and sylvatic transmission cycles, mosquitoes must co-occur with both potential wildlife hosts, such as monkeys, space time. We deployed BG-Sentinel traps at heights 0, 5, 10, 15 m trees rainforest reserve Manaus, Brazil, characterize vertical stratification their associations...
Abstract Campinarana is a fragile white‐sand rainforest ecosystem in Amazonia, where mining activities have been an important driver of landscape transformation, threatening biodiversity. Despite its importance for biodiversity, few studies investigated insects' response to environmental disturbance campinaranas . Here, we assess the differences between dung beetle assemblages undisturbed and disturbed The studied differ substantially their vegetation structure, one strongly affected by...
