The genusEupsophus(ground frogs) inhabits exclusively the temperate forests of southern South America (Chile and Argentina). The current delimitation of the genus was reached in the late 1970s, when only two species were recognized, but since then the number of described species steadily increased, reaching a maximum of 11 by 2012. Subsequent studies that applied explicit species delimitation approaches decreased the number of species to six in 2017 and raised it again to 11 the following year, including an undescribed putative species. Despite these taxonomic changes, the two species groups traditionally recognized,roseusandvertebralis, have been maintained. Another recent contribution to the taxonomy of the genus was the explicit recognition of the extremely high level of external phenotypic variation exhibited by species of theroseusgroup, which undermines the utility of some diagnostic characters. Here we provide a critical review of the extensive taxonomic and systematic literature on the genus over the last six decades, to examine the evidence behind the recurrent taxonomic changes and advances in its systematics. We also update and complete a 2017 review of geographic information, provide additional qualitative observations of external characters commonly used in the diagnoses of species of theroseusgroup, and reassess the phylogenetic position of a putative new species from Tolhuaca (Chile), which was not included in the last species delimitation study. The present review shows that: 1) there is no congruence between the patterns of phenotypic and genetic/phylogenetic differentiation among species of both groups; 2) in theroseusgroup, the intraspecific variation in some external characters is as high as the differences described among species; 3) there is little morphological and bioacoustic differentiation within species groups, and inconsistencies in the chromosomal evidence at the genus level; 4) under the latest taxonomic proposal (2018), species of theroseusgroup still lack consistent and reliable diagnoses and their distribution limits are poorly defined; and 5) the population from Tolhuaca represents an additional undescribed species under the most recent taxonomic framework. Finally, we discuss the implications of these findings for the taxonomy and biogeography of the genus, pointing out some areas that require further research to understand their patterns and processes of diversification.
IntroducciónEl término linfoma se utiliza para identificar un grupo heterogéneo de neoplasias que se originan en las células de los órganos del tejido linfoide y que tienen comportamiento biológico y clínico diferente. Históricamente divididas en 2 grandes categorías:Compromiso nodal y extranodal detectado con PET/CT en linfoma en etapificación Ladrón de Guevara D., et al. Compromiso nodal y extranodal detectado con PET/CT en linfoma en etapificación. Rev Chil Radiol 2017; 23(3) (SUVmax promedio 13,0±9,7), un 86,3% presentó compromiso nodal (51,9% a ambos lados del diafragma, 24,5% sólo sobre el diafragma) y 66,7% compromiso extranodal (42,6% médula ósea, 22,1% muscular,16,2% renal). De los 30 pacientes con LH (SUVmax promedio 14,6±6,0), el 100% tuvo compromiso nodal (63,3% sólo sobre el diafragma, 36,7% sobre y bajo el diafragma), y 30% compromiso extranodal (66,7% médula ósea, 22,2% pulmón . Aun cuando ambas neoplasias son sensibles a la quimioterapia y a la radioterapia, sus tasas de curación son diferentes. El LH puede curarse hasta en un 80% de los pacientes empleando tratamientos tradicionales y terapias de rescate, el LNH se cura en Resumen. Objetivo: Describir el compromiso nodal y extranodal visible con PET/CT en los distintos tipos y subtipos de linfoma en etapificación. Pacientes y método: Se revisaron los PET/CT con F18-FDG realizados a pacientes con linfoma en etapificación, determinando frecuencia y localización del compromiso nodal y extranodal, e intensidad de captación de F18-FDG medida mediante SUVmax. Resultados: De los 102 pacientes con LNH
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
