Distribution extension of Hyalinobatrachium cappellei (van Lidth de Jeude, 1904) (Anura: Centrolenidae) across Central Amazonia

Abstract

We report the occurrence of the centrolenid frog Hyalinobatrachium cappellei in Careiro, Amazonas, Brazil (Central Amazonia). Our records reduce a gap of approximately 1,500 km between the closest known records for this glassfrog, and confirm H. cappellei as geographically widespread in the Amazon Basin. © 2012 Check List and Authors.
