| anurofauna of an atlantic rainforest fragment and its surroundings in northern rio de janeiro state, brazil. | we carried out a study on the anurofaunal community from an atlantic forest fragment (monte verde mountains) and the surrounding area in cambuci municipality, rio de janeiro state, brazil, which constitutes one of the largest fragments remaining in the largely deforested landscape of the northern portion of the state. we combined three sampling methods: plot sampling, transects and pit-fall traps. we recorded twenty species of amphibians, of which only eleven were found within the forest fragmen ... | 2010 | 21085792 |
| parameters from the community of leaf-litter frogs from estação ecológica estadual paraíso, guapimirim, rio de janeiro state, southeastern brazil. | we studied the leaf-litter frog community of estação ecológica estadual paraíso, in guapimirim, rio de janeiro state, southeastern brazil. herein we combined three sampling methods (large plots, visual encounter surveys and pit-fall traps) to present data on species composition, richness, relative abundance and densities. the local assemblage of frogs associated to the leaf-litter was composed by 14 species, belonging to nine families. haddadus binotatus, a direct-developing frog, was the most a ... | 2011 | 21971595 |
| herpetofauna of an atlantic rainforest area (morro são joão) in rio de janeiro state, brazil. | we studied the herpetofaunal community from the atlantic forest of morro são joão, in rio de janeiro state, brazil, and present data on species composition, richness, relative abundance and densities. we combined three sampling methods: plot sampling, visual encounter surveys and pit-fall traps. we recorded sixteen species of amphibians and nine of reptiles. the estimated densities (based on results of plot sampling) were 4.5 ind/100 m2 for amphibians and 0.8 ind/100 m2 for lizards, and the over ... | 2008 | 18506255 |
