“…For instance, two of the generalist species recorded in this study, Leptodactylus latinasus and L. mystacinus , are abundant in rice cultivation fields in the Pampa biome and may benefit from habitat modifications in Pampa wetlands (Machado & Maltchik, 2010). Biotic homogenization of ponds is an important issue in the SBG, as about 90% of wetlands in southern Brazil are already fragmented (Maltchik, 2003; Maltchik, Costa, Becker, & Oliveira, 2003) and threatened by agricultural expansion (e.g., soy and rice), urban development, pollution, and invasion of pines (Grasel, Mormul, Bozelli, Thomaz, & Jarenkow, 2018; Machado, Drummond, & Paglia, 2008; Maltchik et al, 1996; Moraes, Stenert, Rolon, & Maltchik, 2014).…”
