A new species of Caecilia Linnaeus, 1758 (Amphibia: Gymnophiona: Caeciliidae) from French Guiana

Boletim do Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi - Ciências Naturais, 2018
We describe a new species of the genus Caecilia from French Guiana. The new species differs from most species of the genus in the numbers of primary and secondary grooves. Color pattern, body shape, presence of subdermal scales, and number of teeth separate Caecilia museugoeldi sp. nov. from the other species of the genus.

We applied an integrative taxonomic approach, taking into consideration external morphology, os­teology from intensive ct-scanning, and molecular phylogenetic analyses.
