“…Las ranas del género Telmatobius están distribuidas desde el norte de los Andes ecuatorianos hasta el sur de los Andes chilenos y argentinos con un total de 63 especies; la mayoría son acuáticos y habitan en arroyos y lagos entre los 1000 a 5200 m de altitud (Vellard 1951), en el Perú se han reportado 27 especies en una amplia variedad de hábitats que incluyen los valles secos de la vertiente de los Andes del Pacifico, los bosques secos alto andinos y los bosques húmedos de la vertiente amazónica (Barrionuevo 2016, Ttito et al 2016.…”

El estudio se realizó en 13 zonas del litoral peruano del lago Titicaca, durante la época seca, desde junio hasta agosto de 2017. En cada zona se determinó la abundancia relativa y uso de microhábitat de Telmatobius culeus. En las zonas de evaluación se utilizó buceo con esnórquel para realizar en cada una tres transectos de 100 m x 2 m, con un total de 38 transectos evaluados. Se registraron 45 individuos en solo seis zonas de evaluación. El mayor número de individuos se encontraron en la zona de Perka Norte, con una abundancia relativa de 10.33 individuos/hora/02 personas a una profundidad de 1.5 m; en siete zonas no se registró ningún individuo. Los individuos fueron encontrados en los siguientes micro hábitats: 17 fueron encontrados sobre la vegetación acuática, 11 en arena combinado con vegetación acuática, 9 en roca combinado con vegetación acuática, 5 en fango combinado con vegetación acuática, 2 en roca y 1 en arena. a la vez se realizó análisis de diferentes parámetros de calidad de agua en cada zona de estudio, como: temperatura, pH, alcalinidad, dureza y oxígeno.

The Junín giant frog Telmatobius macrostomus (Peters, 1873) is an Endangered and endemic frog in the central Andes of Peru. However, no quantitative ecological data exist to facilitate characterization of T. macrostomus habitat, nor do estimates of occupancy and detection probability, all of which are vital to inform appropriate management decisions. We present novel data on the current distribution and habitat of T. macrostomus in 3 natural protected areas in the regions of Junín and Pasco, Peru. To provide a general description of the areas where T. macrostomus occurred and did not occur, we measured a variety of physical, chemical, and biological conditions. We found T. macrostomus in fewer than half the streams surveyed for an estimated occupancy and detection probability of 0.40 ± 0.11 SE and 0.84 ± 0.06 SE, respectively. Akaike's information criterion (AIC) indicates that of the 20 single-variable models constructed during this study, 5 were substantially associated with T. macrostomus occurrence (Δ corrected AIC [ΔAIC c ] < 2). The % Chironomidae metric of benthic macroinvertebrate communities at sampled sites best predicted the occurrence of T. macrostomus, followed by pH. Specific conductance, % silt and rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss were also associated with T. macrostomus occurrence. Although the most parsimonious multi-variable occupancy model only included % Chironomidae, pH and rainbow trout as predictive variables of T. macrostomus occurrence, the other singlevariable models with apparent influence over T. macrostomus occurrence may also be used to identify adequate areas for Junín giant frog conservation.
