Amphibia, Anura, Limnomedusa macroglossa, Dendropsophus anceps, D. berthalutzae, D. seniculus, Scinax littoralis: new state records, distribution extension and filling gaps

“…Brazil is the world leader in amphibian diversity, with 841 species (SBH 2008). However our knowledge about amphibians in Brazil is still incipient, and constantly new records of geographic distribution and description of new species are very common, even in the state of São Paulo where the amphibian fauna is historically better known (Araújo et al 2007a;b;Brasileiro et al 2007a;b;Thomé et al 2007;Prado et al 2008).…”

Amphibia, Anura, Hylodes charadranaetes, Ischnocnema octavioi, and Euparkerella cochranae: distribution extension

“…Given this impressive biodiversity, it is unsurprising that the current knowledge on the geographic distributions of many Brazilian amphibians is greatly deficient, with several species being known only from their type localities (Pimenta et al 2005). Nevertheless, a number of species with restricted ranges have had their distributions expanded in recent years (Pimenta et al 2005;Santos et al 2005;Dayrell et al 2006;Leite et al 2006;Marques et al 2006;Martins et al 2006;Vieira et al 2006;Araújo et al 2007;Maragno and Souza 2007;Thomé et al 2007).…”
