DNA analysis found the new species had at least 5% genetic divergence from other African bullfrogs. The research team included Louis du Preez, Edward Netherlands, Mark-Oliver Rödel and Alan Channing.
The Collinses' mountain chorus frog (Pseudacris collinsorum), which ranges from southwestern North Carolina/southeastern Tennessee south to most of Alabama aside from the north and west to northeastern Mississippi, was formerly thought to represent a population of P. brachyphona, but was described as a distinct species in 2020.
The new species was first erroneously reported as Xenophrys maosonensis from Arunachal Pradesh in 2019 due to overlapping morphological characters and limited molecular evidence. [ 2 ] Taxonomical studies of Mahony et al. (2018) and Lyu et al. (2023) on the Xenophrys genus suggested that multiple potential new species-level taxa in Vietnam and ...
Adenomera guarani exhibits between 6% and 8% genetic divergence from other species in Adenomera. [1] Males have a snout-vent length of 23.1 mm, while those of females measure about 22.9 mm. [3] Males and females have similar foot lengths, measuring around 11.5 mm. Heads are wider than their length, with males possessing a head width of 8.3 mm and a head length of 7.7 mm; in contrast, females ...
Scientists have discovered a strange new toad species smaller than a fingernail in a rainforest in northeast Brazil, shedding more light on the rich diversity of life forms in the region. The ...
A new species of frog has been officially confirmed, close to 80 years after its existence was first theorized. The frog, Rana kauffeldi, is a type of leopard frog, and the process of establishing ...
The frog is found in the basin of the Putumayo River. It was discovered in 2019 during an expedition meant to find out more about the basin's native species. The first specimen found was a juvenile male, which was less than a third of an inch long. Two more examples were found when the researchers heard a beeping noise coming from underground. [3]
