We studied the possible existence of a new dwarf species of the monotypic genus Corythomantis, based on tadpole morphology and advertisement call characteristics of two populations from State of Bahia: Serra São José (dwarf adults) and Lages (normal adult size). We compared the tadpole morphology and the advertisement call of Corythomantis greeningi from Lages with the population of Serra São José. We did not find any differences supporting that the population of Lages could represent a new species of Corythomantis. The tadpoles show external morphological characters associated with benthonic habitats and dental formula 5–6(1)/5–8. The advertisement call is composed of one pulsed note with duration of approximately 0.30 s and dominant frequency of approximately 1.00 kHz.
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.
