Tadpole morphology of Jerdon’s Narrow-mouthed Frog Uperodon montanus (Jerdon, 1853) with a range and elevation extension report from Western Ghats, India
Abstract:The study discusses about the new data on larval description, morphological features, larval ecology of stage 25–40 of the Jerdon’s Narrow-mouthed Frog Uperodon montanus (Jerdon, 1853). Tadpoles were identified up to family and genus level based on the historical literature and the species level confirmation was done with molecular studies. We also present a new northern limit record of this species from the Pushpagiri hill ranges in Karnataka (12.669 N, 75.717 E) and a new highest elevation record of 1,916 m… Show more
