ABSTRACT

In recent years, the taxonomic knowledge of Pseudopaludicola has increased and it is currently possible to elucidate aspects of the species within this genus such as their geographic distributions. Here we accessed new data on geographic distribution of P. boliviana and three long-legged species of the P. saltica group (P. saltica, P. murundu, and P. jaredi). Based on morphometric, acoustic and genetic data, we accessed the specific status of long-legged specimens from Chapada dos Veadeiros highlands and attributed them to the P. murundu. We also performed a phylogenetic analysis including several populations of the three species. Based on this novel dataset, we discussed the geographical distributions of P. saltica, P. murundu, and P. jaredi, providing new records for them. Pseudopaludicola boliviana is one of the five species of the P. pusilla group and it is thought to be a widely distributed species based on its morphology. Hence, we evaluated the geographic distribution of P. boliviana, using novel acoustic data of specimens from Argentina, Northern Brazil, and Bolivia.

摘要

近年来，Pseudopaludicola的分类学知识有所增加，目前有可能阐明该属内物种的各个方面，例如它们的地理分布。在这里，我们访问了有关P. boliviana和P. saltica组的三种长腿物种（ P. saltica 、 P. murundu和P. jaredi）地理分布的新数据。基于形态测量、声学和遗传数据，我们获得了来自 Chapada dos Veadeiros 高地的长腿标本的具体状态，并将它们归因于P. murundu. 我们还进行了系统发育分析，包括这三个物种的几个种群。基于这个新的数据集，我们讨论了P. saltica、P. murundu和P. jaredi的地理分布，为它们提供了新的记录。Pseudopaludicola boliviana是P. pusilla组的五个物种之一，根据其形态，它被认为是一种广泛分布的物种。因此，我们使用来自阿根廷、巴西北部和玻利维亚的标本的新声学数据评估了P. boliviana的地理分布。
