“…Our results indicate that L. podicipinus individuals have a larger locular area than L. macrosternum (Chaves, Moura, et al, 2017), Physalaemus cuvieri , Dendropsophus minutus , and Boana albopunctata (Rezende et al, 2021) individuals, which suggests interspecific variation in testicular parameters. However, all of these species have been studied in an environment with water stress (Chaves, Moura, et al, 2017) or human interference (Rezende et al, 2021). The results presented herein, may have been affected by the post‐rainy period during which the animals were studied, as the large locular size is associated with the presence of early stage germinative cysts, which are common in the post‐reproductive period (Sasso‐Cerri et al, 2004) even though L. podicipinus is classified as a species with continuous reproduction (Prado et al, 2000).…”
