Despite the impressive growth of knowledge on the phylogenetic systematics of dart-poison
frogs and their relatives (Dendrobatoidea) over the past decade, many problems remain to …

The small size, low vagility, territoriality, and reproductive mode of some Amazonian frogs
undermine the wide geographical distribution assigned to them. Species with these features …

We describe a new species of Allobates from the south of eastern Amazonia, Brazil. This
species inhabits fluvial springs and the banks of small streams in terra-firme forests along …

Cryptic diversity is extremely common in widespread Amazonian anurans, but especially in
nurse frogs of the genus Allobates. There is an urgent need to formally describe the many …

Limited knowledge about species diversity restricts inferences about biogeography and
macroecology in Amazonia, where biodiversity documentation has become particularly …

The small nurse frogs of the genus Allobates (Anura, Aromobatidae) represent one of the
most challenging taxonomic issues of the Neotropics. During several amphibian surveys in …

Few studies have focused on the diverse fauna of southwestern Brazilian Amazonia. This
region, spared from large-scale human occupation until the second half of the twentieth …

We describe the advertisement calls and color in life of Allobates sumtuosus (Morales 2002)
based on specimens recorded and collected at its type locality in Reserva Biológica do Rio …

Timber exploitation is the most profitable and popular use of forest. To evaluate how this
activity affects biodiversity is of crucial importance for conservation. Therefore, we carried out …

We use integrative taxonomy to formally describe a candidate species of nurse frog of the
genus Allobates from southwestern Brazilian Amazonia. The new species nests within a …
