New insights into a poorly known parasite, Dero lutzi (Oligochaeta: Naididae), associated with tree frogs of the genus Scinax: morphological evaluation and genotypic data [PDF]
The oligochaete Dero lutzi follows a life strategy that alternates between free-living periods in aquatic environments and endoparasitic phases. Most occurrences of D. lutzi in anurans are reported in species with arboreal habits, with studies limited to

Temporal Dynamics of Species Richness and Composition in a Peri-Urban Tropical Frog Community in Central Brazil. [PDF]
This study address how species coexistence and species–environment relationship are impacted by temporal variation in climate sub‐urban area. ABSTRACT Analyzing the temporal dynamics of ecological communities can shed light on coexistence mechanisms and help understand how populations and communities will behave in the face of climate change.

Influence of conspecifics and road noise on the properties of the advertisement call of Phyllodytes luteolus (Anura, Hylidae). [PDF]
In this work, we investigated the influence of motor vehicle noise on a highway in the municipality of Ilhéus on the acoustic parameters of the advertisement call of a species of anuran with bromeligenous habits. This was the first study to investigate this effect on a species that spends its entire life in bromeliads and to present data/values of its ...
