Underwater Hunting in an Arboreal Snake: Predation Notes on Amazonian Frog Larvae

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We report novel underwater hunting behaviour in a canopy‐dwelling species of snake, the Common Green Racer (Chlorosoma viridissimum). The snake is seen diving and foraging in phytotelmata (water‐filled tree holes), feeding on tadpoles of treefrogs (Trachycephalus resinifictrix, T. hadroceps, and Osteocephalus oophagus). These findings contribute to our

The tadpoles of Hyla rufitela (Anura: Hylidae).

open access: yesRevista de biologia tropical, 2005
The validity of the published description of Hyla rufitela is questioned because the origin of the described tadpoles does not correspond to the distribution of this species. The present description, based on tadpoles that were hatched from two egg masses from the Caribbean lowland of Costa Rica, includes tadpoles raised to adult frogs to verify the ...

Ecological and Historical Correlates of Taxonomic, Phylogenetic, and Functional Diversity of Amphibians in South American Rainforests and Savannas

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study identifies the key drivers of anuran amphibian diversity (taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic) across South America's Cerrado, Amazonia, and Atlantic Rainforest. Although taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity consistently increased with long‐term climatic stability in all regions, functional diversity was primarily influenced by current ...

Hylidae Rafinesque 1815

open access: yes, 2018
Family Hylidae Aplastodiscus callipygius (Cruz & Peixoto, 1985) was synonymized with A. albosignatus (a species absent from the list of Rocha et al., 2004) by Berneck et al. (2016).Thus, we substituted the former name by the latter in our list. Bokermannohyla clepsydra (Lutz, 1925) is known only from its type locality in the state of São Paulo ...

Anuran Assemblage Structure in the Serra Da Capivara National Park, Piauí State, North‐Eastern Brazil

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Biological communities consist of species that coexist and interact with each other and the environment over the same spatial and temporal scales. How species use the available resources can shape community structure, particularly in mechanisms that favour species coexistence, such as niche partitioning. This study investigated the spatial and
