Reproduction and larval morphology af adenomera diptyx (anura: leptodactylidae) from the Argentinean humid Chaco an Brazilian Pantanal

Whereas the external larval morphology of some species of Adenomera has been described, their internal morphology remains poorly studied. In this work, we provide information on the reproductive features and larval morphology of populations of Adenomera from northeastern Argentina and southwestern B...

The chondrocranial morphology of A. diptyx exhibits all the characters that characterise all members of the genus Leptodactylus and several characters that are shared with the L. fuscus group: wide suprarostrals with U-shaped corpora in frontal view, long and narrow cornua, long and finger-like processi anterolaterali on the otic capsules, a posterior curvature of the palaquadrate at the level of the point of attachment of the processus ascendens of the orbital cartilage, a processus ascendens that is almost perpendicular to the main axis of the body, a connection between the processus ascendens and the orbital cartilage just posterior to the oculomotor foramen, and a processus branchialis that is open between ceratobranchials II and III.
