“…The other clade includes the P. hypochondrialis and P. perinesos Groups, plus P. atelopoides and P. tomopterna. None of these clades corresponds to previous attemps by Lutz (1950) to partition Phyllomedusa into smaller units that were alternatively considered as subgenera (Lutz, 1950) or genera (Lutz, 1966, 1968). In the subgenus Phyllomedusa , Lutz (1950) included P. bicolor and P. loris (a junior synonym of P. buckleyi ); in the subgenus Pithecopus Cope, 1866, she included the P. burmeisteri and P. hypochondrialis Groups.…”

“…All species except P. “ rohdei ” occur in plateaus and mountain areas of East–Central Brazil, where they breed in temporary streams that are fed by rain water (Brandão and Álvares, 2009; Brandão et al., 2009). The species Phyllomedusa ayeaye and P. oreades also breed in pools (Lutz, 1966; Cardoso et al., 1989; Giaretta et al., 2007). Brandão et al.…”

The phylogenetic relationships of the charismatic poster frogs, Phyllomedusinae (Anura, Hylidae)

et al. 2010

The leaf or monkey frogs of the hylid subfamily Phyllomedusinae are a unique group of charismatic anurans. We present a molecular phylogenetic analysis that includes 45 of the 60 species of phyllomedusines using up to 12 genes and intervening tRNAs. The aims were to gain a better understanding of the phylogenetic position of Phrynomedusa, test the monophyly and explore the relationships among several putative lineages (Hylomantis, the H. buckleyi Group, Phasmahyla, the four species groups of Phyllomedusa, and the species of Phyllomedusa that remain unassigned to any group), and to examine the implications of our phylogeny for the evolution of several characters in phyllomedusines. The analyses resulted in a well-supported phylogenetic hypothesis that provides a historical framework for a discussion of the evolution of characters associated with reproductive biology, gliding behaviour, the physiology of waterproofing, and bioactive peptides. Implications include an earlier origin for eggless capsules than for leaf-folding behaviour during amplexus, two independent origins of gliding, and an earlier origin of reduction in evaporative water loss than uricotelism, which is a result that originally was predicted on the basis of physiology alone. Furthermore, our results support the prediction that bioactive peptides from different peptide families are to be expected in all species of Phyllomedusinae. Hylomantis (as recently redefined) is shown to be paraphyletic and the synonymy of Agalychnis is revised to remedy this problem by including both Hylomantis and Pachymedusa.

“…Espécie de tamanho médio (CRC médio = 38,7 mm; amplitude 38,3 a 39,1 mm; Massa média = 4,2 g; amplitude 4,1 a 4,3 g; Nc = 2; No = 2), com distribuição bastante restrita, conhecida anteriormente apenas de sua localidade tipo no Morro do Ferro, município de Poços de Caldas (Lutz 1966, Cardoso et al 1989), sendo mais recentemente registrada na Serra da Canastra, município de São Roque de Minas (Araujo et al 2007b), no estado de Minas Gerais. O registro dessa espécie no PEFBJ ampliou sua distribuição para o estado de São Paulo, o que aponta a necessidade de reavaliação do grau de ameaça em que se encontra (Araujo et al 2007b).…”

amphibians of Parque Estadual das Furnas do Bom Jesus, Southeastern Brazil, and its relationships with other assemblages in Brazil. Biota Neotrop., 9(2): http://www.biotaneotropica.org.br/v9n2/en/abstract?article+bn01309022009. Abstract:We present the 24 anuran species occuring in Parque Estadual das Furnas do Bom Jesus (PEFBJ), municipality of Pedregulho, São Paulo state, southeastern Brazil. Barycholos ternetzi, Rhinella rubescens, Scinax canastrensis, and Phyllomedusa ayeaye correspond to new records to the São Paulo state species list, the latter species considered as threatened in IBAMA and IUCN lists. In order to characterize the PEFBJ anuran assemblage we compare its species composition with 66 localities from different biomes in Brazil. The 67 assemblages were ordinated and grouped by Principal Coordinates Analysis (ACOP) and Cluster Analysis. The multivariate analysis allowed the identification of four groups: one from Amazonian forest assemblages; two from Atlantic forest assemblages, being one consisting of dense Atlantic rain forest of Bahia, Espírito Santo states and its transitions with seasonal semideciduous forests (Minas Gerais state), and the other one consisting of localities of dense Atlantic rain forest of Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Paraná states and its transitions with araucaria rain forest (Atlantic rain forest with Araucaria angustifolia), seasonal semideciduous forests, and Pampas Biome assemblages; assemblages from more open physiognomies, as Caatinga (semiarid steppe of Northeast Brazil), Cerrado (Brazilian savanna), Pantanal (Brazilian wetlands), and the Atlantic forest (seasonal semideciduous forests) were included in the fourth group. The faunistic groups obtained indicate that species composition of the 67 localities are strongly related to the vegetation types where they occur. The great diversity observed among the physiognomic vegetation types could be related to the topographic and climatic variations found in the different biomes considered in our analysis (Amazon, Caatinga, Cerrado, Atlantic forest, Pampas and Pantanal). The anuran assemblage of PEFBJ was grouped among the biomes with open phytophysiognomies (fourth group), showing great similarity to the faunas of Cerrado and semideciduous forests in the Atlantic forest Biome of São Paulo state. do Parque Estadual das Furnas do Bom Jesus, sudeste do Brasil, e suas relações com outras taxocenoses no Brasil.

“…The expression "declive em frente" has puzzled some authors [7] and was probably the reason why Lynch [8] thought that C. ritae was conspecific with Cochranella resplendens-a species with sloping snout strongly inclined anteroventrally. However, when comparing how B. Lutz used the phrase "declive em frente" to describe other frogs, it is clear that she used it for fairly round snouts, only slightly curved anteroventrally (e.g., Phyllomedusa ayeaye Lutz [13,14]). When adapted to current terminology for glassfrogs (i.e., [3]), the snout of the holotype of C. ritae could be better described as snout subovoid in dorsal view, and round and slightly curved anteroventrally in lateral view.…”
