“…We have also verified that specimens of Dendrophryniscus from Itaimbezinho, state of Rio Grande do Sul, referred by Braun and Braun (1979) and Garcia and Vinciprova (2003) as D. brevipollicatus Jiménez de La Espada, 1871 and by IUCN (2006) as D. berthalutzae (MCN 11028-30), actually belong to D. krausae Cruz & Fusinatto, 2008, a recently published species (see Cruz and Fusinatto 2008).…”

A new species of the genus Amazophrynella (Anura, Bufonidae) is described from the departments of Madre de Dios, Cusco and Junin in Peru. An integrative taxonomy approach is used. A morphological diagnosis, morphometrics comparisons, description of the advertisement call, and the phylogenetic relationships of the new species are provided. Amazophrynella javierbustamantei sp. n. differs from other species of Amazophrynella by: intermediate body-size (snout-vent length 14.9 mm in males, n = 26 and 19.6 mm in females, n = 20), tuberculate skin texture of body, greatest hand length of the Amazophrynella spp. (3.6 mm in males, n = 26 and 4.6 mm in females, n = 20), venter coloration yellowish, tiny rounded black points covering the venter, and thirteen molecular autapomorphies in the 16S RNA gene. Its distribution varies from 215 to 708 m a.s.l. This discovery highlights the importance of the remnant forest in preserving the biodiversity in Peru, and increase in seven the species formally described in the genus Amazophrynella.

“…Although there is no previous discussion about species relationships within Dendrophryniscus, Izecksohn (1993), proposed an infrageneric grouping based on reproductive mode, with D. minutus, D. bokermanni and D. leucomystax, belonging to a "pool-breeding group and D. brevipollicatus, D. carvalhoi, D. berthalutzae and D. stawiarskyi to a "bromeliad-breeding group. Cruz and Fusinatto (2008) followed this arrangement, and called the bromeliad-breeding species as the brevipollicatus group. Based on our morphological comparisons we propose, rather, a geographical grouping, with an Atlantic Forest brevipollicatus group characterized by cryptic ventral color, expanded tip of fourth finger, reduction of inner finger and subarticular tubercles transversely elliptical on hands, thus containing D. berthalutzae, D. brevipollicatus, D. carvalhoi, D. krausae, D. leucomystax, D. oreites sp.…”

A new species of the tree toad genus Dendrophryniscus is described from a rainforest habitat at Parque Nacional de Serra das Lontras, municipality of Arataca, southern Bahia, Brazil. Dendrophryniscus oreites sp. nov. is related to the Atlantic forest brevipollicatus group by hand morphology, skin texture, ventral coloration and bromelicolous habits. The new species differs from related species by having a larger size, warty skin, inner finger reduced with presence of a dark nuptial pad in males, and a yellowish coloration with discrete dorsal pattern. This discovery highlights the importance of southern Bahia in terms of conservation, and for our understanding of the evolution of the frog diversity within the Atlantic Rainforest.
