Antimicrobial Peptides from Skin Secretions of Hypsiboas pulchellus (Anura: Hylidae)
Journal of Natural Products, 2014 The skin of many amphibians produces a large repertoire of antimicrobial peptides that are crucial in the first line of defense against microbial invasion. Despite the immense richness of wild amphibians in Argentina, knowledge about peptides with antimicrobial properties is limited to a few species.

A New Species of theHypsiboas pulchellusGroup from the Serra da Mantiqueira, Southeastern Brazil (Amphibia: Anura: Hylidae) [PDF]
Herpetologica, 2016 Abstract: A new species of the Hypsiboas pulchellus group is described from the Mantiqueira range, in the Municipio de Rio Preto, State of Minas Gerais, Brazil. We describe adults, tadpoles, and the advertisement call. The new species is morphologically similar to H.

Skeletal development and adult osteology of Hypsiboas pulchellus (Anura: Hylidae)
Acta Herpetologica, 2012 Osteological and skeletal characters have long been proven to be particularlyinformative in taxonomic and systematic research. Furthermore, ossification sequencesare assumed to be a potential tool to investigate developmental states and developmentalmodes of fossil and extant skeletal specimens.

Odorous secretions in anurans: morphological and functional assessment of serous glands as a source of volatile compounds in the skin of the treefrog Hypsiboas pulchellus (Amphibia: Anura: Hylidae) [PDF]
Journal of Anatomy, 2015 AbstractSerous (granular or venom) glands occur in the skin of almost all species of adult amphibians, and are thought to be the source of a great diversity of chemical compounds. Despite recent advances in their chemistry, odorous volatile substances are compounds that have received less attention, and until now no study has attempted to associate ...

Evaluation of imazethapyr-induced DNA oxidative damage by alkaline Endo III- and Fpg-modified single-cell gel electrophoresis assay in Hypsiboas pulchellus tadpoles (Anura, Hylidae) [PDF]
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2017 Imazethapyr (IMZT) is a selective postemergent herbicide with residual action. Available data analyzing its effects in aquatic vertebrates are scarce. In previous studies, we demonstrated that IMZT induces lesions into the DNA of Hypsiboas pulchellus tadpoles using the single-cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) assay as a biomarker for genotoxicity ...

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2014 The neonicotinoid insecticide imidacloprid (IMI) affects the insect central nervous system and is successfully applied to control pests for a variety of agricultural crops. In the current study, acute toxicity and genotoxicity of the IMI-containing commercial formulation insecticide Glacoxan Imida (35 percent IMI) was evaluated on Hypsiboas pulchellus (

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2015 Acute lethal and sublethal toxicity of the imidazolinone imazethapyr (IMZT)-based commercial formulation herbicide Pivot H® (10.59% IMZT) was evaluated on Hypsiboas pulchellus tadpoles. Whereas mortality was used as the end point for lethality, frequency of micronuclei (MNs) and other nuclear abnormalities as well as DNA single-strand breaks evaluated ...

Ecological Indicators, 2014 Abstract Acute toxicity and genotoxicity of imidacloprid (IMI) was evaluated on Hypsiboas pulchellus (Anura: Hylidae) tadpoles exposed under laboratory conditions. A lethal effect was used as the end point for lethality, whereas the frequency of micronuclei (MNs) and DNA single-strand breaks evaluated by the single cell gel electrophoresis assay ...

Chemosphere, 2010 Environmental contaminants can disrupt interactions between aquatic species by altering community structure. We explored predator-prey interactions between marbled swamp juvenile eels (Synbranchus marmoratus; predator) and anuran tadpoles (Hypsiboas pulchellus; prey) in relation to two aspects: the importance of lateral line in the predator and whether
