“…The inland areas of the state of São Paulo are historically less diverse than the areas close to the São Paulo coast. This discrepancy is a result of several interrelated factors, such as topography, altitude, rainfall, humidity and temperature (Rossa-Feres et al 2011;Haddad et al 2013). According to Silva et al (2012), regions with strong seasonal climates support only those reproductive modes that are resistant to the desiccation of eggs, thus reducing the phylogenetic diversity of the given region.…”

“…The anuran fauna of the São Paulo state is the best studied of the country and includes records of 230 species (Rossa-Feres et al 2011). The Atlantic Forest areas have an anuran fauna that is extremely rich and diverse with over 200 species compared with the more inland localities in the state, which have approximately 70 species Garcia et al 2009).…”

Abstract:We present a list of amphibian species from the Agudos and Jaú municipalities, a Midwest region of São Paulo state, Brazil. The 26 species recorded exhibited a strong seasonality, with their reproductive periods concentrated in the rainiest months (October and December). Most of the species (88%) are generalists and typically associated with open areas. Although none of the species to be associated exclusively forest environments, the occurrence of some species (12%) depends on the proximity of water bodies for environments with forest formation. Thus, the presence of riparian forest fragments near water bodies is essential for some populations, as these sites are refuge for some species.

“…This is not unanticipated because these databases are prone to errors and geographical bias (Yesson et al 2007, Beck et al 2014. The highest density of occurrence records within the AF and CER is in southeastern Brazil (mainly in the state of São Paulo), and doubtless is a result of a recent initiative to advance the biodiversity knowledge of the state of São Paulo, with an increase in anuran surveys (the Biota-FAPESP Program, see Rossa-Feres et al 2011). The vouchers from most of the anuran inventories supported by this program were deposited in herpetological collections that are hosted in the SpeciesLink database (e.g., Vasconcelos and Rossa-Feres 2005, Santos et al 2007, 2009, Zina et al 2007, Silva et al 2012.…”

“…This analysis generates a rasterized map depicting the magnitude of point occurrences per unit area that fall within a neighborhood (~100 km) around each record. The final map of each hotspot will indicate areas with highest and lowest densities of occurrence records, thereby allowing us to identify areas that are either wellor under-represented by the open-access biodiversity data; a similar approach was used by Rossa-Feres et al (2011).…”

The utility of open-access biodiversity information in representing anurans in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest and Cerrado. Many geographic coordinates of species are only available in biological collections, and sometimes it is difficult to access these data. However, recent initiatives promise to compile and organize such biodiversity data at a global scale. We evaluated the effectiveness of open-access biodiversity information for forecasting the occurrence of anurans in two Brazilian hotspots -the Atlantic Forest (AF) and the Cerrado (CER). We compiled all available point-occurrence records for anuran species in both hotspots and identified the regions in each of the two hotspots having the highest and lowest number of anuran occurrences based on information from the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) and the SpeciesLink project. A total of 13,130 point-occurrence records were recovered for 409 anurans from the AF (~77% of the known species) and 12,729 records for 176 species (~85% of the known species) from the CER. Density of point occurrence data is not randomly distributed within the hotspots. The greatest density of Atlantic Forest records is in southeastern Brazil, and the densest areas in Cerrado occur in the transitional zones to the Atlantic Forest. Comparison of these results with previous studies based on traditional museum information revealed that many important collections of anurans from these hotspots are not included in GBIF and SpeciesLink.

“…Furthermore, this record extends the known distribution of H. caingua in 155 km (linear distance) northward from the nearest occurrence in Mato Grosso do Sul state, recorded in the municipality of Naviraí (Aoki et al, 2010). Despite the limited knowledge about the biology and ecology of H. caingua (e.g., Melo et al, 2007;Kolenc et al, 2008;Brassaloti et al, 2010), the species appears to be predominantly associated with the Atlantic Forest domain in the São Paulo state (Araújo et al, 2009;Condez et al, 2009;Rossa-Feres et al, 2011). However, the species had already been recorded in open area formations in São Paulo state, i.e.…”

Implementing new northernmost records to modelling the distribution of Hypsiboas caingua (Anura: Hylidae) in South America

New northwestern records of the striped treefrog Hypsiboas caingua (Carrizo, 1991(Carrizo, "1990 are presented for Brazil, extending its known geographic distribution approximately 115 km northward (linear distance) of the previous northernmost record of the species. In all new localities, individuals of H. caingua were only found in calling activity under temperatures below 18ºC. The species appears to be associated with Atlantic Forest, although it had already been recorded in Cerrado. Although the scientific literature data suggests that H. caingua presents discontinuous geographical distribution, three methods of distribution modelling based on climatic data show that the species' distribution is continuous. The gap in the distribution may be related to the lack of field surveys in the regions that connect these populations, especially in colder periods. Nevertheless, factors other than climate might also be responsible for the current distribution of H. caingua, since the species was absent in well-surveyed sites situated between the areas of modeled distribution. Therefore, further studies on natural history, populations' genetic structure, and geographic distribution models implementing factors other than climate will be important to elucidate some ecological and evolutionary aspects of the distribution of H. caingua in South America.Keywords: Central-Southern Brazil, Cerrado, striped treefrog, species distribution modelling (SDM), low temperatures. Uso de novos registros ao norte para a modelagem de distribuição deHypsiboas caingua (Anura: Hylidae) na América do Sul ResumoNovos registros da perereca Hypsiboas caingua (Carrizo, 1991(Carrizo, "1990 são apresentados para o noroeste do Brasil, ampliando sua distribuição geográfica em aproximadamente 115 km ao norte (distância linear) em relação ao registro anterior setentrional da espécie. Em todas as novas localidades, indivíduos de H. caingua foram apenas encontrados vocalizando sob temperaturas abaixo de 18 ºC. A espécie aparenta estar associada com a Mata Atlântica, embora já tenha sido registrada no Cerrado. Apesar de dados da literatura científica sugerirem que H. caingua apresente distribuição geográfica descontínua, os três métodos de modelagem de distribuição, baseados em dados climáticos demonstram que a distribuição da espécie é contínua. A lacuna na distribuição pode estar relacionada à ausência de levantamentos de campo nas regiões que conectam essas populações, principalmente em períodos frios. Contudo, outros fatores além do climático também podem ser responsáveis pela atual distribuição de H. caingua, visto a ausência da espécie em locais bem amostrados situados entre as áreas de distribuição modeladas. Portanto, mais estudos sobre a história natural, genética de populações e modelos de distribuição geográfica que abordem outros fatores além do clima, serão importantes para elucidar alguns aspectos ecológicos e evolucionários da distribuição de H. caingua na América do Sul.Palavras-chave: Centro-Sul do Brasil, Cerrado, striped treefro...
