Rising habitat loss is one of the main drivers global amphibian decline. Nevertheless, knowledge diversity needed for effective protection still highly inadequate in remote tropical regions, greater part Amazonia. In this study we integrated molecular, morphological and bioacoustic evidence to evaluate species richness treefrogs genus Scinax over a 1000 km transect across rainforest Purus-Madeira interfluve, along east bank upper Madeira river, Brazilian Analysis revealed that 82% regional...
