{"title":"New Species of Leaf-litter Toad of the Rhinella margaritifera Species Group (Anura: Bufonidae) from Amazonia","authors":"Miquéias Ferrão, A. Lima, S. Ron, Sueny Paloma Lima dos Santos, J. Hanken","doi":"10.1643/CH2020043","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1643/CH2020043","url":null,"abstract":"We describe through integrative taxonomy a new Amazonian species of leaf-litter toad of the Rhinella margaritifera species group. The new species inhabits open lowland forest in southwest Amazonia in Brazil, Peru, and Bolivia. It is closely related to a Bolivian species tentatively identified as Rhinella cf. paraguayensis. Both the new species and R. paraguayensis share an uncommon breeding strategy among their Amazonian congeners: each breeds in moderate to large rivers instead of small streams or ponds formed by rainwater. The new species is easily differentiated from other members of the R. margaritifera species group by having a strongly developed bony protrusion at the angle of the jaw, a snout–vent length of 63.4–84.7 mm in females and 56.3–72.3 mm in males, well-developed supratympanic crests with the proximal portion shorter than the parotoid gland in lateral view, a divided distal subarticular tubercle on finger III, and multinoted calls composed of groups of 7–9 pulsed notes and a dominant frequency of 1,012–1,163 Hz. Recent studies have shown that the upper Madeira Basin harbors a megadiverse fauna of anurans, including several candidate species. This is the first member of the R. margaritifera species group to be described from this region in recent years, and at least two additional unnamed species await formal description.","PeriodicalId":10701,"journal":{"name":"Copeia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2020-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45387442","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Systematics and Taxonomy of Chapalichthys (Cyprinodontiformes: Goodeidae), a Small Genus of Live-Bearers from Central Mexico","authors":"K. Piller, D. Bloom, J. Lyons, N. Mercado-Silva","doi":"10.1643/CI2020044","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1643/CI2020044","url":null,"abstract":"The genus Chapalichthys (Cyprinodontiformes: Goodeidae) consists of three allopatrically distributed species that occur on the Mesa Central, Mexico. Chapalichthys encaustus primarily occurs in the Río Lerma-Santiago basin, whereas both C. peraticus and C. pardalis have restricted distributions in the adjacent Río Balsas basin. Taxonomic issues in the genus center around the validity of C. peraticus. A formal systematic and taxonomic assessment of the genus inclusive of all three species of Chapalichthys has never been conducted. Therefore, the objectives of this study were two-fold: 1) to assess the phylogenetic relationships among multiple populations and all three species of Chapalichthys using 1,047 bp of mtDNA (ND2) sequence data, and 2) in light of the phylogenetic results, to re-examine the taxonomic status of C. peraticus using meristic and pigmentation characters. The phylogeny indicates two clades, each consisting of a valid species. One clade includes multiple populations of C. encaustus, and a second clade consists of multiple individuals of C. pardalis and C. peraticus. Chapalichthys pardalis and C. peraticus possess nearly identical mitochondrial sequences for ND2. Morphologically, meristic counts of all characters examined showed overlap for all three species and provide no species-specific diagnostic information. Chapalichthys encaustus can be differentiated from C. pardalis and C. peraticus based on the presence of vertical bars along the lateral flank versus a spotted pattern in the other two species. Chapalichthys pardalis and C. peraticus cannot be differentiated from one another based on pigmentation or meristics. The results from this study support the recognition of only two species of Chapalichthys: C. encaustus and C. pardalis.","PeriodicalId":10701,"journal":{"name":"Copeia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2020-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42928400","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
