Item New records and geographic distribution map of Elachistocleis magnus Toledo, 2010 (Anura: Microhylidae)(Check List, 2012-05-01) Strüssmann, Christine; Campos, Vitor Azarias; Rodrigues, Tainá Figueras Dorado; Almeida, Carlos Henrique L. N.; Toledo, Luís Felipe; Hoogmoed, Marinus Steven; Valadão, Rafael MartinsNew locality records and distribution map for the recently described Elachistocleis magnus are here presented. Originally described from Rondônia state, western Brazil (Amazonia), E. magnus was until now recorded for only two additional localities in the same state. The new records presented herein, which considerably enlarge the known range of the species, include three additional Brazilian states – Amazonas, Pará, and Mato Grosso (including records in the Brazilian Cerrado). We provide color description of the species in life, and discuss variation in habitats used by this species.Item New locality records, geographical distribution, and morphological variation in Cercosaura parkeri (Ruibal, 1952) (Squamata: Gymnophthalmidae) from western Brazil.(Check List, 2012-11-01) Barreto, Débora Soares; Valadão, Rafael Martins; Nogueira, Cristiano; de Castro, Carolina Potter; Ferreira, Vanda Lúcia; Strüssmann, ChristineThe presence of the gymnophthalmid lizard Cercosaura parkeri (Ruibal, 1952) in western Brazil is confirmed, based on vouchered records for localities in the states of Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul. Morphological variation in a series of 20 males and 17 females is also presented.Item Squamate Reptiles of the central Chapada Diamantina, with a focus on the municipality of Mucugê, state of Bahia, Brazil.(Check List, 2012-02-01) Marco Antonio, de Freitas; Diogo, Veríssimo; Vivian, UhligWe present the first species list of squamate reptiles for the central region of the Chapada Diamantina, with a focus on the municipality of Mucugê, state of Bahia Brazil. The data provided were mostly collected in the Caraíbas estate, during vegetation clearing operations for agriculture. The remnant records were collected from roadkills encountered in Mucugê and neighboring municipalities. We found 64 species of squamate reptiles including 35 species of snakes, 25 of lizards and four of amphisbaenians. These records have already yielded three species descriptions with others likely to follow. This is evidence of the poorly documented herpetological diversity of the Chapada Diamantina. The present work highlights the need for further research and the potential of less traditional data sources such as roadkills to improve the knowledge of the herpetofauna of extensive and megadiverse countries like Brazil.
