albotuberculata refer to the same lineage, and we recognize the oldest available name (Sanguirana mearnsi) for this species. We also define the central Philippine lineage (from Negros, Masbate, and Panay islands) as a distinct new species. Long confused with S. everetti, the new taxon is ...
Users adopting Frost et al.'s classification will struggle to retrieve data about this frog, unless they are aware of its other name [22]. Ideally, phylogenetic databases would keep abreast of name changes, and be able to expand queries to include synonyms [16]. Hierachy The final criterion...
328-bp-long alignment corresponding to the 13 coding genes of the mitogenome. For historical type specimens, the original name combinations are shown in bold. Quotation marks for a GenBank sequence assigned toEmydura subglobosa(KC692462) indicate questionable taxonomic allocation. Numbers at nodes ar...
The name Limnodytes was first applied to grebes by Oberholser (1974), and thus is a junior homonym of Limnodytes Dum茅ril and Bibron, 1841, a ranid frog (currently synonymized with Hylarana Tschudi, 1838; see Frost 2013).DANIEL T. KSEPKACHRISTIAN F. KAMMERER...
fleischmanni sensu stricto is supported for populations from Costa Rica to eastern Honduras while the name Hyalinobatrachium tatayoi corresponds to the southern lineages in Costa Rica and South America. Those two species differ in the note duration of the advertisement call and in the absence of ...
We use a recently published bait set based on three mitochondrial markers from all known Malagasy frog lineages to capture DNA sequences from the 127-year-old holotype ofMocquard, 1895. With the obtained sequences we are able to assign the nameto the lowland lineage, which is rather ...
The name Rosellinia subsimilis Sacc. is invalid, as it is a later homonym of R. subsimilis P. Karst. & Starbäck. Therefore, we introduced Coniochaeta dakotensis as a nomen novum for R. subsimilis Sacc. This is the first time that these types have been subjected to a molecular study...
