“…In the wetland zones, the dominant species was Scinax fuscomarginatus (Table 3). This small-sized hylid is commonly associated with reeds and other emergent plants in temporary ponds and lagoons (Brasileiro et al 2005, Van-Silva et al 2007, Serafim et al, 2008, similar to those observed in the wetlands of the study area ( Figure 2B, D), except for the SU P4. This SU differed from the others by not showing plant stratification, being essentially characterized as a temporary pond in sandy soil the surroundings of which were covered by grasses ( Figure 2C).…”

The Conde municipality is located in the northern coast of the state of Bahia (NC), northeastern Brazil, and is part of the Atlantic Tropical domain. The anuran fauna of the northern portion of the NC is still poorly known if compared to the southern portion. The Restinga is one of the predominant environments of the coastal plains of the NC and it is characterized essentially by presenting sandy soil covered by herbaceous and shrubby vegetation. The objective of this study was to determine the anuran species composition and diversity for the Restinga of the Conde municipality. Sampling was carried out at night by active search over four periods of five consecutive days each, two over the 'main rainy season' and two in a 'lesser rainy season', using 14 sample units (SUs) and five extra sample plots (EPs). We calculated dominance and species diversity using the Berger-Parker and Shannon-Wiener H' indices, respectively. We used accumulation curves and the Jackknife 1 estimator to estimate anuran species richness, considering only the data obtained from the SUs. We recorded 713 anuran specimens distributed within 33 species, 13 genera and five families (Bufonidae, Craugastoridae, Hylidae, Leptodactylidae and Microhylidae). The Hylidae and Leptodactylidae families had the highest species richness. Considering only the SUs (Jackknife 1 estimator in brackets), we recorded 28 species in the study area (33.9 ± 2.3), 13 in Shrubby Vegetation Zones - SVZ (20.8 ± 2.9) and 25 in Freshwater Wetland Zones - FWZ (28.9 ± 1.9). The abundance and species diversity of the FWZ (n = 638 specimens; H'= 2.4) were higher than those recorded for the SVZ (n = 52 specimens; H' = 1.9). The SVZ and FWZ showed distinct dominant species, wherein Pristimantis paulodutrai was the dominant species in SVZ and Scinax fuscomarginatus in FWZ. The Restinga of the Conde municipality stands out as the one with the highest anuran species richness already recorded considering only SVZ and FWZ. Moreover, its anuran species composition represented 55% of the anuran species known for the NC and included taxa common to three different morphoclimatic domains (Tropical Atlantic, Cerrado and Caatinga).

“…Haddad and Prado 2005), which were habitats poorly sampled in our study. Since our sampling effort was concentrated in high altitude areas, widely distributed species, such as Hypsiboas faber, Leptodactylus labyrinthicus, and Leptodactylus mystacinus and also those known to occur in lower altitude areas (Serafim et al 2008) were not recorded. The specific locality in which Bokermann (1972) found B. clepsydra, andGiaretta et al (1993) found M. bocainensis, called Campo de Friticultura (also known as Fazenda Ponte Alta) was surveyed for 14 consecutive months.…”

Here, we review the species of anuran amphibian from the Serra da Bocaina National Park and its buffer area, in the Atlantic Forest of southeastern Brazil, comparing the data from a recent survey with museum records. We surveyed adult and larval anurans in ponds, marshes, and streams discontinuously from May 2008 to January 2011. In total, 63 anuran species were previously known to occur at the Park and its surrounding buffer area. In our survey, we recorded 46 species, of which five represented new records, and 22 appeared only in the historical list. Seven topotypic populations were not found in the present study. We suggest that conservation strategies for anurans in the Serra da Bocaina should also consider the surrounding areas that are subjected to anthropogenic pressure, due to the high diversity recorded, high altitudinal variation in species distribution, and various vegetation formations.

“…Studies of amphibian and reptile diversity in Atlantic Rainforest areas have grown considerably over the past five years (e.g., Dixo and Verdade, 2006;Juncá, 2006;Moraes et al, 2007;Colombo et al, 2008;Carvalho-e-Silva et al, 2008;Lucas and Fortes, 2008;Santana et al, 2008;Serafim et al, 2008;Bertoluci et al, 2009;Narvaes et al, 2009;Marques et al, 2009;Araujo et al, 2010;Wachlevski and Rocha, 2010;Costa et al, 2010;Sousa et al, 2010;Vilela et al, 2011). For example, the number of studies concerning the composition of local amphibian and reptile fauna have also increased in this period in the state of Rio de Janeiro (e.g., Rocha and Van Sluys, 2006;Carvalho et al, 2007;Carvalho-e-Silva et al, 2000;Rocha et al, 2008;Silva et al, 2008;Pontes et al, 2009;Almeida-Gomes et al, 2008.…”

The Atlantic Rain forest, which is considered the second largest pluvial forest in the American continent, has had an estimated 93% of its original area destroyed. Although studies concerning the herpetofaunal diversity in this biome have been intensified in the past years, its diversity is still underestimated. The Nucleo Experimental de Iguaba Grande (NEIG) is included in an Environmental Protection Area (APA de Sapeatiba) in the Iguaba Grande municipality, Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil (22° 51' S and 42° 10' W). The goal of this study was to conduct an inventory of the reptile and amphibian species that occur in this area between July 2008 and December 2009. We recorded 19 species of amphibians (18 anurans and one caecilian) and 15 species of reptiles (three lizards, 11 snakes and one amphisbaenian). Leptodactylus latrans and L. mystacinus had the highest capture rates among amphibians captured, and among reptiles, Ameiva ameiva, Hemidactylus mabouia and Mabuya agilis had the highest capture rates. Rarefaction curves for both amphibians and reptiles did not reach the asymptote, indicating that the species richness in the NEIG is still underestimated.
