Anurofauna of an Atlantic Rainforest fragment and its surroundings in Northern Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil

“…Scinax trapicheiroi (Lutz, 1954) was originally described from a site in the municipality of Rio de Janeiro (Lutz, 1954). Subsequently, it has been reported from other localities both to the west and to the east of the type locality (Luna-Dias et al, 2009). Our record for Cambuci extends its geographic range some 160 km northeast of the previous easternmost reported locality, in Saquarema municipality (Luna-Dias et al, 2009).…”

“…Subsequently, it has been reported from other localities both to the west and to the east of the type locality (Luna-Dias et al, 2009). Our record for Cambuci extends its geographic range some 160 km northeast of the previous easternmost reported locality, in Saquarema municipality (Luna-Dias et al, 2009). Ischnocnema oea was described from Santa Teresa, in the State of Espírito Santo (Heyer, 1984) and was until recently known only from the type locality.…”

Treefrog Diversity in the Neotropics: Phylogenetic Relationships of Scinaxini (Anura: Hylidae: Hylinae)

“…Ololygon trapicheiroi is known from Rio de Janeiro including the island of Ilha Grande, and eastern Minas Gerais (Lutz, 1954; Izecksohn and Carvalho-e-Silva, 2001; Luna-Dias et al, 2009; Silveira, 2011; Folly et al, 2020). This species, represented in our analyses by topotypes, is recovered as the poorly supported (62% jackknife) sister taxon of Ololygon sp.…”

New records of the Near Threatened species <i>Ololygon trapicheiroi</i> (Anura: Hylidae)

“…Ololygon trapicheiroi (Cardoso and Haddad, 1982) is a small tree frog from the O. catharinae group described for the Trapicheiro River, Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro municipality, Rio de Janeiro state. This species inhabits mountainous areas in the Atlantic Rainforest region of Southeastern Brazil (Carvalho-e-Silva and Carvalho-e-Silva 1994, Faivovich 2002, Rico et al 2004, Van Sluys et al 2006, de Luna-Dias et al 2009. This species was listed on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as Near Threatened and the major threats that it faces are habitat loss due to deforestation arising from agricultural encroachment, infrastructure development, and fire (Rodrigues and Telles 2004).…”

“…Several species have their distribution associated with river basin valleys (e.g., Feio and Caramaschi 1995, 2002, Feio et al 1998, Santana et al 2010, Araújo et al 2013. Ololygon trapicheiroi was known only for lower areas of the coast of Rio de Janeiro State and Ilha Grande (de Luna-Dias et al 2009, Silveira 2011. Typical species of coastal areas are favored by depressions and river valleys at low altitudes, and thus dispersed into inland areas, as observed in terrestrial segments of the Rio Doce (Feio et al 1998, Feio et al 1999, Jequitinhonha Caramaschi 1995, 2002) and Paraíba do Sul Basin (Feio and Ferreira 2005, Santana et al 2010, Pereira et al 2016.…”
