The Larva ofCrossodactylus aeneusMüller, 1924: Morphology and Ecological Aspects

“…Four other species of Hylodidae occur in the area: Hylodes asper, H. charadranaetes, H. pipilans, and Megaelosia goeldii. Larvae of Megaelosia goeldii are easily distinguished from individuals of C. aeneus by their dark color, which is uniformly distributed along body (Lutz 1930), and by being much larger in size. The tadpoles of C. aeneus can be differentiated from those of Hylodes spp.…”

Vocalizations of the Brazilian torrent frogHylodes heyeri(Anura: Hylodidae): Repertoire and influence of air temperature on advertisement call variation

“…During the day, they can be observed vocalizing on rocks close to the water, but are wary and when disturbed they escape into the water torrents (Lutz 1930;Haddad et al 1996). Hylodes heyeri Haddad, Pombal, and Bastos, 1996 is a frog with restricted distribution.…”

Taxonomic Review of the species complex of Crossodactylus dispar A. Lutz, 1925 (Anura, Hylodidae)

“…Like A. Lutz (1930), she noted the sexual dimorphism in forearm thickness, as well as the "blunt snout and swollen head" of males. She also mentioned that the two other syntypes presented "small, irregular teeth", absent in USNM 96739, along most of the length of the vomerine ridge, and that syntype USNM 96740, "apparently a male", presented a "circlet of black-tipped tubercles around the upper lip".…”

“…A black and white version of this same drawing was reproduced in the review of Elosiinae by A. Lutz (1930).…”
