a new tuberculated pristimantis (anura, terrarana, strabomantidae) from the venezuelan andes, redescription of pristimantis pleurostriatus, and variation within pristimantis vanadisae.	a new tuberculated pristimantis is described from the eastern versant of the venezuelan andes. the new species is found in cloud forest at around 1600 masl on the eastern side of the cordillera de mérida. it is distinguished from other similar tuberculated species by its round, ill-defined canthus rostralis, ill-defined canthal stripe, and absence of pale spots on the groin and posterior surface of thighs. pristimantis pleurostriatus is a poorly known species found in cloud forest on the western ...	2013	26295097
local-scale seasonality shapes anuran community abundance in a cloud forest of the tropical andes.	analysing how seasonality shapes abundance patterns fosters understanding of the processes related to amphibian community assemblies. in this study we analyse the relationship between local seasonal patterns of abundance within the anuran community of the monte zerpa cloud forest, mérida mountain range (cordillera de mérida), in the venezuelan andes. we hypothesized that variation in precipitation, temperature, and relative humidity affects the temporal abundance patterns of anurans. data collec ...	2019	31966318
