“…astartea has an overall generalized anatomy resembling other stream or pond dwelling species of the B . circumdata group, including an elongated tail, keratinized mouthparts, and similar LTRF [ 40 – 42 ]. It does not show any reduction of the internal oral features or musculoskeletal specializations (Pezzuti, T.L., personal observation), encountered in highly modified arboreal tadpoles (arboreal tadpoles of Group 1 of Lannoo et al .…”

“…astartea still retains intrinsic characteristics of the group ( e . g ., large spawn and large detritivorous tadpoles [ 40 , 42 , 78 ]), it possesses a previously unreported mode of tadpole development including a shift in the developmental environment from bromeliads to streams [ 18 ]. This shift in tadpole habitat is likely employed to avoid confinement of growing larvae in a small space with limited resources ( i .…”

“…To date, detailed information on reproductive biology and natural history are available for only four species of the genus [ 36 – 39 ]. On the other hand, tadpoles and advertisement calls are well known for most species of Bokermannohyla [ 40 – 42 ], with only a few species remaining for which these traits are unknown.…”

Anurans have the greatest diversity of reproductive modes among tetrapod vertebrates, with at least 41 being currently recognized. We describe a new reproductive mode for anurans, as exhibited by the Paranapiacaba Treefrog, Bokermannohyla astartea, an endemic and poorly known species of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest belonging to the B. circumdata group. We also describe other aspects of its reproductive biology, that are relevant to understanding the new reproductive mode, such as courtship behavior, spawning, and tadpoles. Additionally, we redescribe its advertisement call and extend its vocal repertoire by describing three additional call types: courtship, amplectant, and presumed territorial. The new reproductive mode exhibited by B. astartea consists of: (1) deposition of aquatic eggs in leaf-tanks of terrestrial or epiphytic bromeliads located on or over the banks of temporary or permanent streams; (2) exotrophic tadpoles remain in the leaf-tanks during initial stages of development (until Gosner stage 26), after which they presumably jump or are transported to streams after heavy rains that flood their bromeliad tanks; and (3) tadpole development completes in streams. The tadpoles of B. astartea are similar to those of other species of the B. circumdata group, although with differences in the spiracle, eyes, and oral disc. The vocal repertoire of B. astartea exhibits previously unreported acoustic complexity for the genus. Bokermannohyla astartea is the only bromeligenous species known to date among the 187 known species within the tribe Cophomantini. We further discuss evolutionary hypotheses for the origin of this novel reproductive mode.

“…The genus is classified into three species groups: the B. circumdata, B. pseudopseudis, and B. martinsi groups (Faivovich et al, 2005;Lyra et al, 2020). Bokermannohyla species exhibit multiple advertisement call patterns and extended vocal repertoires, either with distinct note types or different emission patterns (Carvalho et al, 2012(Carvalho et al, , 2013Nali and Prado, 2014;Pinheiro et al, 2014;Garey et al, 2020). Although most species have had their advertisement calls characterized at least once, calls of 5 of the 30 Bokermannohyla species remain unknown: B. caramaschii, B. izecksohni, B. langei, B. ravida, and B. sagarana.…”

Bokermannohyla treefrogs produce a rich array of acoustic signals in their vocal repertoires. Here we report and describe for the first time the vocalizations of B. caramaschii, a species lacking vocal slits. We also extend the known vocal repertoire of B. gouveai by describing a previously unreported note type and revisiting intraspecific variation based on an increased sample of recorded males. The advertisement call of both species is composed of two types of multipulsed notes with emphasized sound energy at low frequencies (<1 kHz). We discuss the possible implications of lack of vocal slits for production of vocal sounds by B. caramaschii. Furthermore, we address inconsistencies in the previous call description of B. gouveai and reassess the species' acoustic variation based on an increased sample size of topotypes. Lastly, we provide the first overview of the advertisement call diversity within Bokermannohyla, recognizing major temporal patterns of their calls.
