2. Anuran diversity in urban and rural zones of the Itacoatiara municipality, central Amazonia, Brazil
RESUMO Poucos estudos avaliaram a diversidade de anuros em fragmentos florestais urbanos ou em áreas com diferentes graus de impacto antrópico na Amazônia. Neste estudo foi determinada a composição e abundância de anuros em áreas urbanas e rurais no município de Itacoatiara, na Amazônia central, Brasil. Anuros foram amostrados entre janeiro de 2012

3. The Herpetofauna from Ilha Grande (Angra dos Reis, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil): updating species composition, richness, distribution and endemisms
Abstract Ilha Grande is a large continental island (total area of 19,300 ha) situated at the southern coast of the state of Rio de Janeiro, in southeast Brazil, within the Atlantic Forest Biome. Here we provide an update to the previous knowledge of the fauna of amphibians and reptiles occurring in Ilha Grande, based on primary data from our own fieldwork an

4. Looking for attitudes related to amphibian species decline: how are peer-reviewed publications of education activities compared to ecological research?
ABSTRACT Biodiversity decline has been the focus of discussions in the last decade, especially on the amphibian species decline. After a scientometric analysis using international databases, we found that the number of peer-reviewed articles considering education practices related to the theme increased along with the number of ecological researches. However

5. Evolutionary analysis of apolipoprotein E by Maximum Likelihood and complex network methods
Abstract Apolipoprotein E (apo E) is a human glycoprotein with 299 amino acids, and it is a major component of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) and a group of high-density lipoproteins (HDL). Phylogenetic studies are important to clarify how various apo E proteins are related in groups of organisms and whether they evolved from a common ancestor. Here, w

6. Climate and land-use changes effects on the distribution of a regional endemism: Melanophryniscus sanmartini (Amphibia, Bufonidae)
ABSTRACT Amphibians are the most threatened vertebrate group according to the IUCN. Land-use and land cover change (LULCC) and climate change (CC) are two of the main factors related to declining amphibian populations. Given the vulnerability of threatened and rare species, the study of their response to these impacts is a conservation priority. The aim of t

7. Anuran community composition along two large rivers in a tropical disturbed landscape
In this study we evaluated how anuran species were distributed in riparian habitats along two large rivers. Sampling was carried out between January and March 2012 in the municipality of Cachoeiras de Macacu, state of Rio de Janeiro. We delimited 20 plots along each river, ten in portions inside the forest of the Reserva Ecológica de Guapiaçu (REGUA), and

8. Diversity patterns, research trends and mismatches of the investigative efforts to amphibian conservation in Brazil
O número de artigos sobre biologia de anfíbios tem aumentado nos últimos anos. Um panorama detalhado destas publicações pode ser bastante útil na avaliação do estado do nosso conhecimento sobre este grupo taxonômico. Em função do grande número de artigos publicados no Brasil a cada ano, nós avaliamos a contribuição das pesquisas herpetológica

9. Herpetofauna of Paranapiacaba: expanding our knowledge on a historical region in the Atlantic forest of southeastern Brazil
The largest area of preserved Atlantic forest is located in the southern portion of Brazil. The region of Paranapiacaba is depicted in Brazilian zoological studies as one of the first and most intensely sampled areas of the state of São Paulo.We provide a concise list of reptiles and amphibians from the Paranapiacaba Municipal Park. It represents the first

10. Aspectos da fisiologia metabólica e do desempenho locomotor em anfíbios anuros: implicações da fragmentação ambiental / Aspects of metabolic physiology and locomotor performance in anuran amphibians: implications of habitat fragmentation
Diversos aspectos metabólicos e comportamentais possuem uma estreita relação com as condições do ambiente, havendo um compromisso entre as condições naturais e a dinâmica de modificações sobre os organismos. Devido ao grande índice de degradação ambiental proveniente da atividade humana nos últimos tempos, populações de anfíbios têm sido pa

11. Análise de dados secundários sobre a fauna de vertebrados da unidade fitogeográfica do Vale do Paranã.
ABSTRACT: The Cerrado is one of the richest and most threatened biome in the world and its ecosystem Seasonally dry forest is the one that suffers most antropic pressure. It's important that conservation of The Paranã River Valley increases because it presents a greater amount of dry forest in the Cerrado. According to data compilation from literature, 120
