Dramatic decline and range contraction of the Endangered Patagonian frog Atelognathus patagonicus (Anura, Leptodactylidae) [PDF]
Abstract The Endangered frog Atelognathus patagonicus is endemic to the Laguna Blanca wetland system, Patagonia, Argentina. This species has undergone a significant contraction of its original distribution, including loss of the main population from the largest lagoon, Blanca. The decline of A. patagonicus was first perceived in 1986 and was thought
