“…We often found G. albolineata in low to medium understory up to 3-4 m high, in areas with a deep leaf litter layer and abundant bromeliads and lianas, which agrees with a similar habitat description for G. microdiscus (Monteiro et al 2019). Several species of Gastrotheca are arboreal and seem to prefer perches 1-4 m high (Catenazzi and Von May 2011, Teixeira Jr. et al 2012, Monteiro et al 2019, which again agrees with our findings.…”

Natural history of the marsupial frog Gastrotheca albolineata (Anura: Hemiphractidae) in lowland Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Gastrotheca albolineata is a marsupial frog endemic to the Atlantic Forest in southeastern Brazil. It remains poorly studied in nature and is uncommon in herpetological collections. We studied the natural history of G. albolineata during a four-year period (2015 to 2019), in Ubatuba, São Paulo state, Brazil, at its southernmost distribution. Our results show that G. albolineata is arboreal, perches from low to medium heights, and breeds during the dry season without chorus aggregation. Calling activity occurs during the day but is more intense during the first half of the night. We used dorsal body markings to identify individuals. Six individuals were recaptured during the study, indicating site fidelity during the active season. The defensive repertory of G. albolineata contains seven different behaviors, including a high-pitched distress call. Egg development in the female’s dorsal pouch took at least 87 days, and fully formed froglets were born with a snout–vent length of 16 mm. Our data substantially add to the knowledge of the natural history of Brazilian marsupial frogs and can be helpful to delineate conservation strategies for elusive species such as G. albolineata.

“…En Perú se conocen 29 especies de Gastrotheca (Duellman & Venegas 2016, Frost 2019). Estas especies han sido caracterizadas en base a la morfología, coloración corporal, modo de desarrollo larval, osteología craneal y caracteres moleculares (Boulenger 1900, Barbour & Noble 1920, Vellard 1957, Duellman & Fritts 1972, Trueb & Duellman 1978, Duellman 1987, Duellman & Hillis 1987, Duellman et al 2001, Duellman et al 2004, Duellman & Venegas 2005, Duellman et al 2006, Catenazzi & Lehr 2009, Catenazzi & von May 2011, Duellman et al 2011, Lehr & Catenazzi 2011, Duellman 2013, Duellman & Venegas 2016.…”

Se revisa el estado taxonómico de Gastrotheca peruana usando métodos filogenéticos en base a secuencias de 16S rRNA. Los árboles de máxima verosimilitud y Bayesiano mostraron que las variantes génicas de G. peruana forman dos clados que no son hermanos. Uno de estos clados se distribuye en el norte de Perú, incluyendo un individuo procedente de la localidad típica de G. peruana dissimilis. El segundo clado está restringido al centro de Perú y contiene individuos de las localidades tipo de dos formas nominales, G. p. peruana y G. p. junensis, y es hermano de G. aratia. De esta forma, reconocemos dos especies dentro de lo que actualmente se conoce como G. peruana. Restringimos Gastrotheca peruana a las poblaciones del centro de Perú (departamentos de Ancash, Lima, Pasco y Junín) y asignamos Gastrotheca dissimilis a las poblaciones de los departamentos de La Libertad y Cajamarca.
