| molecular phylogeny of ischnocnema (anura: brachycephalidae) with the redefinition of its series and the description of two new species. | we present a new phylogenetic hypothesis for ischnocnema, a neotropical brachycephaloid genus of ground-dwelling direct-developing frogs. we performed bayesian inference, maximum likelihood, and maximum parsimony analyses using two nuclear (rag1 and tyr) and three mitochondrial genes (12s rrna, trna-val, and 16s rrna) in a matrix comprising more than 80% of the described species. we recover ischnocnema nanahallux outside the ischnocnema parva series, and it is now unassigned to any species serie ... | 2018 | 30146039 |
