“…Moreover, the advertisement call of P. moehringi is more similar to that of P. appendiculata -even more than that of P. melanopogon -and both species share several behavioral traits, such as calling from under large rocks and during all day (WEYGOLDT & PEIXOTO 1985, DIAS et al 2013c. However, the oral formula of of P. moehringi tadpole is 2(2)/3(1) and specimens present a rounded nostril.…”

The species of Proceratophrys have been clustered in species groups or complexes based on overall morphological similarity (LYNCH 1971, IZECKSOHN et al. 1998, GIARETTA et al. 2000, KWET & FAIVOVICH 2001, PRADO & POMBAL 2008.Species without palpebral appendages are assigned to the Proceratophrys bigibbosa and P. cristiceps species groups. Species of the Proceratophrys cristiceps group occur in open and dry environments of Cerrado and Caatinga. They are characterized by the absence of post-ocular swellings (GIARETTA et al. 2000, CRUZ et al. 2012, GODINHO et al. 2013. The thirteen species included in the group are: P. aridus Cruz, Nunes & Juncá, 2012; P. bagnoi, Brandão, Caramaschi, Vaz-Lima & Campos, 2013; P. branti, Brandão, Caramaschi, Vaz-Lima & Campos, 2013; P. caramaschii Cruz, Nunes & Juncá, 2012; P. carranca Godinho, Moura, Lacerda & Feio, 2013; P. concavitympanum Giareta, Bernarde & Kokubum, 2000; P. cristiceps (Müller, 1883); P. cururu Eterovick & Sazima, 1998; P. dibernardoi, Brandão, Caramaschi, Vaz-Lima & Campos, 2013; P. goyana (Miranda-Ribeiro, 1937); P. huntingtoni Ávila, Pansonato & Strüssmann, 2012; P. moratoi (Jim & Caramaschi, 1980); P. rotundipalpebra, Martins & Giaretta, 2013; P. strussmannae Ávila, Kawashita-Ribeiro & Morais, 2011; and P. vielliardi Martins & Giaretta, 2011.Proceratophrys bigibbosa group is found in southern and southeastern Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay. The species in this group are characterized by a blunt and short snout, by the presence of a post-ocular swelling, and a large marginal row of tubercles on the eyelid (KWET & FAIVOVICH 2001). Currently four species are assigned to the group: P. avelinoi Mercadal de Barrio & Barrio, 1993; P. bigibbosa (Peters, 1872); P. brauni Kwet & Faivovich, 2001; and P. palustris Giaretta & Sazima, 1993. Species with a long and single palpebral appendage are placed in the Proceratophrys appendiculata and P. boiei groups (IZECKSOHN et al. 1998, PRADO & POMBAL 2008, CRUZ & NAPOLI 2010, DIAS et al. 2013a. The species of the P. boiei group occur primarily in the Atlantic Forest, from Paraíba to Santa Catarina states (PRADO & POMBAL 2008): P. boiei (Wied-Neuwied, 1824); P. paviotii Cruz, Prado & Izecksohn, 2005; and P. renalis (Miranda-Ribeiro, 1920).Proceratophrys appendiculata species group is found only in Atlantic Forest, from Bahia to Santa Catarina states (IZECKSOHN et al. 1998, CRUZ & NAPOLI 2010, DIAS et al. 2013a). The ten included species, listed below, are characterized by the presence of a triangular rostral appendage: P. appendiculata (Günther, 1873); P. belzebul Dias, Amaro, Carvalho-e-Silva & Rodrigues, 2013; P. izecksohni Dias, Amaro, Carvalho-e-Silva & Rodrigues, 2013; P. latic...

The chondrocranium and hyobranchial morphology are described for the tadpoles of five species of Proceratophrys Miranda-Ribeiro. The chondrocranium of P. appendiculata, P. boiei, P. laticeps and P. tupinamba are very similar and can be distinguished from that of P. cristiceps by: 1) less developed processus muscularis; 2) thinner palatoquadrate; 3) broadest ethmoidal region; 4) longer cornua trabeculae; and 5) morphology f the suprarostral cartilages. A morphological variation among Proceratophrys boiei is described. It reveals the existence of at least three distinct evolutionary lineages under this name. A brief comparison with other cycloramphid species is also provided.

We studied the amphibian community of the Parque Nacional da Serra dos Órgãos (PARNASO) for over thirty years. The area of 20,024 hectares has a steep altitudinal gradient (200-2,263 m a.s.l.), and it is located in the municipalities of Guapimirim, Magé, Petrópolis and Teresópolis, middle of the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Most data were obtained from sampling sites in the municipality of Teresópolis, with additional data from zoological collections and bibliography. We recorded 83 amphibian species distributed in two orders, Anura, 13 families: Aromobatidae (1), Brachycephalidae (11), Bufonidae (5), Centrolenidae (2), Craugastoridae (2), Cycloramphidae (8), Hemiphractidae (7), Hylidae (28), Hylodidae (6), Leptodactylidae (5), Microhylidae (1), Odontophrynidae (3), Phyllomedusidae (3) and Gymnophiona, one family: Siphonopidae (1). In addition, we present six species that occurs in the buffer zone. Ten of these species are endemic of the park, 18 have PARNASO as its type locality, and five the type locality is at the buffer zone.
