The existence of an unnamed (candidate) species from French Guiana and the state of Amapá (Brazil) closely related to Chiasmocleis haddadi has been hypothesized in previous DNA-based studies. With an integrative use of genetic, morphological and acoustic data we confirm that these populations are indeed distinct from C. haddadi and all other known congeners.

Neuromast topography in anuran amphibians.

J Morphol

February 1987

Department of Anatomy, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada B3H 4H7.

Generalized anuran tadpoles across families exhibit a similar neuromast morphology on their heads, as follows: (1) all neuromast lines known for anurans are present; (2) within these lines total neuromast number ranges from about 250 to 320; (3) neuromasts form linear stitches composed of two to three, but sometimes up to five, neuromasts; (4) neuromast linear dimensions are ⩽ 10 μm; and (5) neuromasts contain ⩽ 15 hair cells. Compared with generalized forms, stream, arboreal, carnivorous, and desert-pond forms have fewer neuromasts but they contain more hair cells. They do not, however, form stitches.
