“…Phylogenetic relationships suggest that a micropipa phenotype represents the ancestral state and that macropipa evolved secondarily during the Late Miocene (Fouquet et al . 2022a), which agrees with the appearance of macropipa forms in the fossil record (Delfino & Sánchez‐Villagra 2018; Muniz et al . 2022).…”

“…The presence of Peruvian pipids at the Eocene–Oligocene interval agrees with a previous molecular analysis that has recently shown that the diversification of the extant Pipa probably started during the early Neogene (Fouquet et al . 2022a). Extant representatives of Pipa fall into one or other of two main phenotypes: ‘macropipa’, large‐sized fully aquatic species associated with large aquatic habitats ( P. pipa and P. snethlageae ), and ‘micropipa’, small species associated with smaller water bodies and having, despite being mostly aquatic, a greater degree of terrestriality than the macropipa forms.…”

“…In the Neotropics, pipids are currently represented by a single genus ( Pipa ) and seven nominal species (Fouquet et al . 2022a), but were much more diverse in the past as evidenced by a relatively rich fossil record that dates back to the Cretaceous (Báez et al . 2021; Barcelos & dos Santos 2022; Suazo Lara & Gómez 2022).…”

Anurans are one of the most diverse vertebrate groups, particularly in Amazonia, where species richness exceeds that of anywhere else. Amazonian frogs belong to three main lineages (Hyloidea, Microhylidae and Pipidae), each of which diversified during the Cenozoic. However, due to the virtual absence of an anuran fossil record in that area, the evolutionary history of modern lineages has so far remained accessible only via molecular data. In recent decades, a series of field campaigns in Peruvian Amazonia led to the discovery of an unparalleled set of anuran bone fragments, scattered across different sites spanning the Eocene–Miocene time interval. Here, we describe these first Palaeogene and early Neogene anurans from Peru with a focus on humeral and ilial morphology, identifying five humeral and five ilial morphotypes. Humeral morphotypes suggest the presence of different lineages of Brachycephaloidea in Peruvian fossil assemblages, whereas ilial morphotypes suggest the presence of Leptodactylidae, although leptodactylid‐like ilia also occur in some extant brachycephaloids. Pipids were also identified based on both humeral and ilial fragments. This study fills a major temporal and geographical gap in the evolutionary history of South American anurans, while further uncovering a lack of knowledge in the skeletal morphology of extant anuran families, as well as their inter‐ and intra‐species variability.

“…Hence, Pebas system turned Western Amazonia an unsuitable environment to the diversi cation of ground-dweller frog groups, negatively affecting terrestrial (Phyzelaphryninae and Allobates; Fouquet et al, 2012;Réjaud et al, 2020) and burrowing (Synapturanus; Fouquet et al, 2021a) clades. On the other hand, the marine incursion was crucial for the origin and diversi cation of aquatic clades (Pipa; Fouquet et al, 2022). Here, we found evidence of Pebas system promoting the diversi cation of arboreal anurans, given that the three most speciose genus in Phyllomedusidae had origin and diversi cation in this area.…”

The species richness in Neotropics has been linked to environmental heterogeneity and a complex geological history. We evaluated which biogeographical processes were associated to the diversification of Monkey tree frogs, an endemic group from Neotropics which was hypothesised to have a south-north pattern of diversification. We used 14 molecular markers on a bayesian analysis to infer phylogenetic relationships among 53 species of Phyllomedusidae and to estimate their divergence times. We defined 17 biogeographical units based on the distribution of the species utilised in our study. Ancestral range estimations were made using models implemented in BioGeoBEARS.We found that genera-level resolution was well-supported as older divergences. Phyllomedusidae ancestor range was uncertain, showing a most probable range in Western Amazonia. Phyllomedusids diverged mostly through jump-dispersal events, with anagenetic dispersals occurring mostly in the last 10 million years. The biogeographical history of monkey tree frogs is rather complex, being influenced by the Neotropical landscape evolution. Diversification was shown to have a north-south pattern within the family, through predominantly jump-dispersal and sympatry processes. Future studies could elaborate further the early history of the group.

We herein present the first annotated anuran checklist for the Brazilian state of Amapá, eastern Amazonia, based on a thorough literature review. We recorded the occurrence of 111 species belonging to 13 anuran families distributed across 48 localities throughout Amapá, within two biomes. Among these species, 62.5% occur exclusively in the Tropical Moist Broadleaf Forest biome, ~8% occur exclusively in the Tropical Savanna biome, and ~29% occur in both. Two species were considered endemic to Amapá and were registered only in the central portion of the state. Regarding the conservation status, only one species (Dendropsophus amicorum) is classified as threatened, assigned to the “critically endangered” category. The other species are categorized as either “least concern” or “data deficient” (85 and 8, respectively), whereas 21 are not evaluated. The current annotated list contributes to the incipient knowledge on anuran species richness in Amapá and, despite the research regarding anuran taxonomy has considerably progressed over the past 20 years, there is still much to do. Our data highlight the need for trained taxonomists to develop research in the state.
