A new genus of Cophomantini, with comments on the taxonomic status of Boana liliae (Anura: Hylidae)
(Oxford Univ Press, 2019-01-01)
The non-monophyly of both the genus Myersiohyla and the Boana punctata group has been recovered in a number of published phylogenetic analyses. In this paper we report on the analysis of sequences of Boana liliae, a species ...
Comparative morphology of the digestive tract of two Neotropical tree frogs (Genus Boana)
(2019-07-01)
The vertebrate digestive system, responsible for providing nutrients for maintaining body homeostasis, consists of two components in anurans: the digestive tract and the accessory glands. The digestive tract includes the ...

Multimodal signaling in Boana albopunctata (Anura: Hylidae): reading visual and acoustic cues
(Univ Sao Paulo, Esalq, 2020-12-01)
The acoustic mode of communication is important for anurans, but visual communication is beginning to be considered essential for some species, genera, and families. This study focuses on visual and acoustic signals in ...
New distribution records from the Brazilian Cerrado and species distribution modelling of Boana crepitans, Lithobates palmipes, Pipa pipa, and Micrurus h. hemprichii
(2019-10-02)
Even though the herpetofauna richness in the Cerrado–a vast tropical savanna ecoregion of Brazil–is one of the highest of all Brazilian biomes, it still needs to be thoroughly investigated. This study reports the first ...
Evaluation of the toxicity of the sediments from an agroecosystem to two native species, Hyalella curvispina (CRUSTACEA: AMPHIPODA) and Boana pulchella (AMPHIBIA: ANURA), as potential environmental indicators
(Elsevier Science, 2018-10)
In a study area chosen outside the city of La Plata (Buenos Aires, Argentina), two zones were selected having different types and magnitudes of agrarian activity: one represented mainly by grasslands with a low degree of ...
Cleavage of Peptides from Amphibian Skin Revealed by Combining Analysis of Gland Secretion and in Situ MALDI Imaging Mass Spectrometry
(American Chemical Society, 2018-05)
Peptides from skin secretions of amphibians are considered important components of their immune system and also play a relevant role in their defense mechanism against predators. Herein, by using mass spectrometry (MS), ...
