“…This species, a member of the L. fuscus group (Heyer 1978), represents an intriguing biogeographic question, similar to that of Bothrops insularis (Marques et al 2002, Brasileiro et al 2007a, Brasileiro et al 2007b), or Rio de Janeiro (Canedo & Pombal 2007, Prado & Pombal 2008. These coastal islands were all formed as a result of fluctuations in sea level, which started about 17,500 y.b.p (Suguio & Martin 1978, Martin et al 1993, isolating some coastal mountains.…”

Abstract:We report the results of a seven-year survey of the anurans of Marambaia, in the State of Rio de Janeiro, southeastern Brazil, where 24 species were recorded. The species represented nine families: Hylidae (10 species), Bufonidae (3), Leptodactylidae (3), Hylodidae (2), Microhylidae (2), Craugastoridae (1), Centrolenidae (1), Cycloramphidae (1), and Leiuperidae (1). We also present notes on the natural history and habitat usage by the anurans.

“…Seu corpo robusto, com tamanho médio (CRC = 51 a 68 mm) e é caracterizado pela presença de apêndices palpebrais desenvolvidos acima dos olhos de onde saem dois cordões dérmicos dorsais (Heyer et al 1990, Ribeiro et al 2005. Com ampla distribuição pela Mata Atlântica ocorrendo de Santa Catarina até Minas Gerais e Espírito Santo (Prado & Pombal 2008). Foi uma das espécies mais abundantes no PECB, os indivíduos foram encontrados em atividade reprodutiva após fortes chuvas; os machos vocalizavam na beira de pequenos riachos e áreas alagadas associados a florestas, nas áreas 1, 2, 3, 4 e 5.…”

Abstract:The present work is a survey of the herpetofauna of Carlos Botelho State Park (CBSP), located in the region of Serra de Paranapiacaba, State of São Paulo, Brazil. Data were gathered from specimens collected in six areas within the park during a period of 76 days distributed in one year, and from three Brazilian scientific collections. We also offer photographs and information on the biology and occurrence of species within the park and among Brazilian biomes. The herpetofauna of CBSP may be considered one of the most diverse in the State of São Paulo, with 65 species of amphibians and 59 species of reptiles recorded in the present study. From the 65 species of amphibia recorded, 84% (55 spp.) are endemic from forested areas of the Atlantic forest. We also distinguished different altitudinal patterns within the amphibian assemblage, with 46% being recorded only at altitudes above 500 m, while 9% are exclusive of areas under 400 m and 45% occur in all altitudes within the park. The reptile fauna of PECB is composed of 59 species, including 10 species of lizards, 48 snakes, and one chelonian. Among the snakes collected at the CBSP, the Lancehead Bothrops jararaca was the most frequent, with 26,9% (N = 14) of the total of the collected specimens. Species that are considered difficult to sample, such as Echinanthera cephalostriata (13,5%; N = 7) and Taeniophallus affinis (7,7%; N = 4), were also numerous in PECB. Among lizards, Enyalius iheringii was the most abundant species, representing 50% (N = 16) of sampled specimens. We also performed a cluster analysis comparing 25 amphibian assemblages from different localities in the Atlantic Forest, and including the PECB, which resulted in the clustering of four main groups. The anurofauna of PECB presented high similarity with the assemblages of Jacupiranga (0,68) and Intervales (0,66) State Parks. These places are geographically close and constitute one of the largest preserved forest fragments of Atlantic rainforest in Brazil. The present work provides at the first time a list of reptiles for the CBSP, and complements the knowledge about the amphibian fauna at the CBSP. Resumo: O presente trabalho consiste em um inventário da herpetofauna do Parque Estadual Carlos Botelho (PECB), localizado na região da Serra de Paranapiacaba, Estado de São Paulo. Os dados foram obtidos por meio de coletas em seis áreas dentro do PECB durante um período de 76 dias distribuídos em um ano, e também por meio de consulta a coleções científicas para obtenção de dados secundários. São apresentados resultados sobre a biologia e ocorrência das espécies no PECB e no Brasil, além de fotografias das diferentes espécies que compõem a herpetofauna do PECB. A herpetofauna do PECB pode ser considerada uma das mais diversificadas de São Paulo, com 65 espécies de anfíbios confirmadas e 59 espécies de répteis registrados neste trabalho. Das 65 espécies de anfíbios, 84% (55 spp.) são endêmicas das formações florestais da Mata Atlântica. Devido às características do relevo do PECB, foram encontra...

“…These frogs occur through a wide variety of biomes: from the Atlantic Rainforest domain (Izecksohn and Peixoto 1981, Kwet and Faivovich 2001, Prado and Pombal Jr 2008 to the Brazilian Cerrado (Eterovick and Sazima 1998, Amaro et al 2009, Moreira et al 2009), the semi-arid Caatinga (Rodrigues 2003), with one species reaching the Amazon rainforest (Giaretta et al 2000). Proceratophrys species are important components of leaf litter communities in Neotropical forests , Boquimpani-Freitas et al 2002 and, because they are relatively large anurans, they can potentially feed upon a large spectrum of prey types and sizes.…”

“…Studies on diet composition of Proceratophrys species (Giaretta et al 1998, Boquimpani-Freitas et al 2002, Teixeira and Coutinho 2002 report the consumption of arthropods, although small vertebrates (frogs) have also been found in some specimens (Boquimpani-Freitas et al 2002), which may indicate their importance in regulating some species from the arthropod communities, as well as populations of small vertebrates of the leaf litter of tropical forests. Information on the endoparasitic fauna is restricted to only one species, P. tupinamba (= P. appendiculata; see Prado and Pombal Jr 2008), for which five nematodes and one cestode species were reported (BoquimpaniFreitas et al 2001).…”

The Atlantic Forest supports high rates of anuran biodiversity and equally high threats of disappearance of species (Duellman 1999, Young et al 2004.…”

Proceratophrys boiei is an endemic cycloramphid anuran inhabiting the leaf litter of Atlantic rainforests in Southeastern Brazil. We analyzed the whole digestive tract of 38 individuals of Proceratophrys boiei collected in two Atlantic Rainforest areas in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to study the diet composition and the helminth fauna associated with this species. The main food items in P. boiei's diet were Coleoptera, Orthoptera and Blattaria. Five nematode species were found: Aplectana delirae, Cosmocerca parva, Oxyascaris oxyascaris, Physaloptera sp. (larval stage only) and an unidentified nematode. Overall prevalence was 71% and mean infection intensity was 7.3 ± 5.8 neatodes per individual.
