On the Uncertain Taxonomic Identity of Adenomera hylaedactyla (Cope, 1868) and the Composite Type Series of A. andreae (Müller, 1923) (Anura, Leptodactylidae)

Copeia, 2019
Adenomera andreae and A. hylaedactyla are two widespread Amazonian frogs that have been traditionally distinguished from each other by the use of different habitats, toe tip development, and more recently through advertisement calls.

Metacercariae of Heterodiplostomum lanceolatum (Trematoda: Proterodiplostomidae) found in Leptodactylus podicipinus (Anura: Leptodactylidae) from Brazil: a morphological, molecular and ecological study.

Journal of Helminthology, 2019
