“…Além disso, o registro de Sphaenorhynchus carneus na APA é importante para a ampliação do conhecimento da espécie em Savanas Amapaense, pois apesar desta espécie ter ampla distribuição na bacia Amazônica (AZEVEDO- RAMOS et al, 2004), no estado do Amapá só existe um único registro em uma área de Savana no distrito de Ariri, Macapá (CORRÊA et al, 2015). Portanto, este estudo ajuda a preencher a lacuna de conhecimento sobre os anuros na área de endemismo do escudo das Guianas no Norte de Brasil e da Savana Amazônica.…”

The knowledge about amphibians in particular its Amazonian Brazilian portion has a constant growth, mainly in the regions of Amazonas, Pará, Rondônia, Amapá and the Guyana shield, but few contemplate Savanna of Amazonian areas. Rio Curiau Environmental Protection Area (Rio Curiau EPA) to be inserted in an urban matrix suffers from pressure, which makes necessary the elaboration of environmental education work emphasizing the relationship between the use and impacts of local communities as a way to enlighten and educate the community about the importance of preserving this area. The overall objective of the study was to determine the diversity frogs adults and larvae in Rio Curiaú EPA. The paper was conducted in 15 temporary ponds (six ponds of Savanna and nine in ponds with edge in contact with the forest) from May to September-2013 and February to August-2014, during which the water ponds remained. The adult amphibians have been recorded through the search method enables visual and auditory, the larvae through sieve and the perception by the structured interview method. Four families, 12 genera and 28 species of anurans were registered, and only 18 of these species had their larvae registered for the EPA, which represents high species richness compared with studies carried out in other areas of the Savanna of Amapá state. The PCA analysis indicated a significant variation for the species of larvae, occurring the contrary to adults, showing that they are independent of the environment throughout the area, while the larvae showed distinct composition between savanna and ponds edge in contact with the forest. However, Betadisper analysis showed the heterogeneity for adults and not for the larvae. The space and the environmental variables together 68.26% of variance explained, thus the mosaic of Savanna, forest islands and lowland forests in the EPA is of great importance for the maintenance and conservation of amphibians. Although most of the residents know that amphibians are important for the environment, yet they cannot describe the problems the lack of these animals can cause to the environment and the community. Finally, the study is fundamental importance to enlarge the knowledge of amphibians to the State of Amapá. In addition to providing data that can subsidize political studies of conservation and environmental education especially in regions considered sampling gaps as the Savanna of Amazonian.

We herein present the first annotated anuran checklist for the Brazilian state of Amapá, eastern Amazonia, based on a thorough literature review. We recorded the occurrence of 111 species belonging to 13 anuran families distributed across 48 localities throughout Amapá, within two biomes. Among these species, 62.5% occur exclusively in the Tropical Moist Broadleaf Forest biome, ~8% occur exclusively in the Tropical Savanna biome, and ~29% occur in both. Two species were considered endemic to Amapá and were registered only in the central portion of the state. Regarding the conservation status, only one species (Dendropsophus amicorum) is classified as threatened, assigned to the “critically endangered” category. The other species are categorized as either “least concern” or “data deficient” (85 and 8, respectively), whereas 21 are not evaluated. The current annotated list contributes to the incipient knowledge on anuran species richness in Amapá and, despite the research regarding anuran taxonomy has considerably progressed over the past 20 years, there is still much to do. Our data highlight the need for trained taxonomists to develop research in the state.
