Abstract

ABSTRACT We describe adult specimens and tadpoles of a new species of Telmatobius Wiegmann, 1834, Telmatobius mantaro, from the central Cordillera of the Andes in Peru. Specimens were collected in humid lower montane forests and dry lower montane forests between 2240–3170 m elevation at the northern parts of the Departments of Huancavelica and Ayacucho. We also report a range extension of 262 km west of the type locality for Telmatobius mendelsoni De la Riva et al., 2012, which was found in sympatry with T. mantaro in Ayacucho. The new species has a snout-vent length of 48.9–55.8 mm in three adult males, and both sexes have tympanic membrane differentiated and tympanic annulus visible, a feature that distinguishes the new species from the majority of other Peruvian Telmatobius. We propose to assign the IUCN category Critically Endangered to this species because of its small area of distribution and its high likelihood of being infected by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis.

秘鲁安第斯山脉中部东科迪勒拉地区一新种(无尾目:端马蝇科)及其蝌蚪描述及T. mendelsoni De La Riva et al.， 2012

摘要本文描述了1834年秘鲁安第斯山脉中部科迪勒拉地区一新种——曼芋头(Telmatobius mantaro)的成虫标本和蝌蚪。标本采集于万卡维利卡省和阿亚库乔省北部海拔2240 ~ 3170 m的湿润低山林和干燥低山林。我们还报告了Telmatobius mendelsoni De la Riva et al.， 2012年与阿亚库乔的T. mantaro共生的类型地点向西扩展262 km的范围。新种3只成年雄鱼的口鼻长度为48.9-55.8 mm，雌雄都有鼓膜分化，鼓膜环可见，这是新种与大多数其他秘鲁虎鱼的区别。由于该物种分布面积小，且极有可能被水蛭壶菌感染，我们建议将其列为IUCN极度濒危物种。

期刊介绍： Annals of Carnegie Museum is a quarterly journal that publishes peer-reviewed short and medium-length original scientific contributions in organismal biology, earth sciences, and anthropology, in 40 by 52.5 pica format (168 by 220 mm or 6-5/8 by 8-5/8 inches). Subject matter must be relevant to Carnegie Museum of Natural History scientific sections or Powdermill Nature Reserve (PNR), preferably with connection to the Carnegie collection and/or personnel. Carnegie Museum staff and research associates receive publication priority, but others are encouraged to submit papers, especially those manuscripts explicitly based on the Carnegie collection.
