“…Besides, there are isolated occurrence records and ecological observations on some species of frogs (Weber et al 2007, Silva-Soares et al 2008, Klaion et al 2011, MaiaCarneiro et al 2012a, b, 2013, Salles et al 2012), lizards (Goyannes-Araú jo et al 2009, Maia et al 2011, Almeida-Gomes et al 2012, and snakes (Alves et al 2005, Silveira et al 2010). Here, we present the list of amphibian and reptile species based on records obtained during nearly ten years of surveys at REGUA and its surroundings.…”

Species inventories are useful tools to improve conservation strategies, especially in highly threatened biomes such as the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Here we present a species list of amphibians and reptiles for the Reserva Ecoló gica de Guapiaçu (REGUA), a forest reserve located in the central portion of Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil. The list results from an extensive sampling effort that lasted ten years. A total of 73 amphibian (of which ten are endemic to the state) and 37 reptile species was recorded from the area. Five amphibian species are presently categorized by the IUCN as ''data-deficient'', two as ''near threatened'' and one as ''endangered'', whereas one reptile species is categorized as ''vulnerable''. Our results showed that REGUA harbors about one-third of the herpetofauna species presently known to occur in state of Rio de Janeiro, adding more information to previously published lists of amphibians and reptiles from localities within the Serra dos Ó rgã os region, and highlighting the importance of this area for conservation of amphibians and reptiles of the Atlantic Forest.

Aqui, nó s apresentamos uma lista de anfíbios e répteis para a Reserva Ecoló gica de Guapiaçu (REGUA), uma reserva florestal localizada na porçã o central do estado do Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. A lista é baseada em um esforço de amostragem extensivo de dez anos de duraçã o. Um total de 73 espécies de anfíbios (das quais dez sã o endêmicas ao estado) e 37 espécies de répteis foi registrado na á rea. Cinco das espécies de anfíbios estã o atualmente categorizadas pela IUCN como ''deficiente em dados'', duas como ''quase ameaçadas'' e uma como ''em perigo'', enquanto uma espécie de réptil está categorizada como ''vulnerá vel''. Nossos resultados mostram que a regiã o da REGUA abriga cerca de um terço da herpetofauna atualmente conhecida para o estado do Rio de Janeiro, adicionando mais espécies em relaçã o a listas de espécies anfíbios e répteis previamente publicadas para localidades na regiã o da Serra dos Ó rgã os e enfatizando a importâ ncia desta á rea para a conservaçã o dos anfíbios e répteis da Mata Atlâ ntica.

“…These records extend the known distribution of H. charadranaetes some 60 km eastwards and those of I. octavioi and E. cochranae some 75 km eastwards ( Figure 2), and suggest that those three species may actually be fairly widespread along the Serra do Mar mountain range in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Also, the record of Hylodes charadranaetes represents the lowest altitude at which this species (previously known to occur at altitudes of 700-1400 m; see Weber et al 2007) has been found.…”

The anurofauna inhabiting higher montane Atlantic forest areas in southeastern Brazil, which often attain heights of more than 2000 m, is still insufficiently known. In this study, we present data on anuran species composition and abundances in two high-altitude (i.e. > 1000 m) sites within the Parque Estadual dos Três Picos (PETP), in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Field surveys were done at altitudes between 1100 and 1900 m above sea level. We recorded 35 species during our study, adding 22 records to the set of anuran species previously known to occur within the PETP. The stability of the species accumulation curve, as well as the richness estimations, showed that the sampling methodology employed and the total sampling effort were appropriate to inventory the anuran assemblages of both sites. Direct-developing frogs such as Ischnocnema parva (Girard, 1853) (at the 1100-1400 m altitude site), and Brachycephalus garbeanus Miranda-Ribeiro, 1920 (at the 1600-1900 m altitude site) were the most locally abundant species. None of the species recorded during the study is listed as threatened, though nine of them are currently considered endemic to the state of Rio de Janeiro. Furthermore, eight of the species recorded are likely restricted to high-altitude habitats. The relatively high diversity of anurans (some of them endemic to the state), the presence of species restricted to high-altitude habitats, and the occurrence of rare and presently undescribed species attest to the biological relevance of the studied areas within the PETP
