Gippner, Sven; Travers, Scott L.; Scherz, Mark D.; Colston, Timothy J.; Lyra, Mariana L. [UNESP]; Mohan, Ashwini V.; Multzsch, Malte; Nielsen, Stuart V.Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-28T19:44:50Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2021-12-01; The 71 currently known species of dwarf geckos of the genus Lygodactylus are a clade of biogeographic interest due to their occurrence in continental Africa, Madagascar, and South America. Furthermore, because many species are morphologically cryptic, our knowledge of species-level diversity within this...
An integrative taxonomic revision and redefinition of Gephyromantis (Laurentoma...
Vences, Miguel; Köhler, Jörn; Crottini, Angelica; Hofreiter, Michael; Hutter, Carl R.; du Preez, Louis; Preick, Michaela; Rakotoarison, AndolalaoThe subgenus Laurentomantis in the genus Gephyromantis contains some of the least known amphibian species of Madagascar. The six currently valid nominal species are rainforest frogs known from few individuals, hampering a full understanding of the species diversity of the clade. We assembled data on specimens collected during field surveys over the past 30 years and integrated analysis of mitochondrial and nucl...

Resolving a taxonomic and nomenclatural puzzle in mantellid frogs: synonymizati...
Cocca, Walter; Andreone, Franco; Belluardo, Francesco; Rosa, Gonçalo M.; Randrianirina, Jasmin E.; Glaw, Frank; Crottini, AngelicaThe genus Gephyromantis belongs to the species-rich family Mantellidae and is currently divided in six subgenera. Among these is the subgenus Phylacomantis, which currently includes four described species: Gephyromantis pseudoasper, G. corvus, G. azzurrae, and G. atsingy. The latter three species are distributed in western Madagascar, and two of them (G. azzurrae and G. corvus) occur in the Isalo Massif. Based ...
