Specimens of the glassfrog Cochranella resplendens (Lynch & Duellman, 1973) are known from 13 localities from Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. Herein, we report the first Brazilian record, which extends the known distribution of the species 2,129 km to the east of the nearest record in Santa Rosa de Sucumbíos Río Rumiyacu, Valle del Guamués, Putumayo, Colombia.
Hydrops martii is a poorly known water snake of the tribe Hydropsini, which has been extensively found across northern South America. In this study, we present the first record in Amapá, based on a single specimen from the municipality of Macapá (0.0333, -51.0666), in the tropical moist broad-leafed forests of northern Brazil. This record extends the species range ca 195 km north from its nearest known record, on Marajó Island, in Pará, in the same ecoregion.
