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

Myiasis in the neotropical amphibian hypsiboas caingua (anura: hylidae) by megaselia scalaris (diptera: phoridae) [PDF]
Host-parasite interactions between dipterans and anurans in the Neotropical region are still poorly known;we report here the first case of myiasis in the anuran Hypsiboas caingua (Hylidae).

The tadpoles of Hyla rufitela (Anura: Hylidae).
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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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
