Filling gap and new state record of lithodytes lineatus (Schneider, 1799) (anura, leptodactylidae) from the eastern brazilian amazon

Abstract

Lithodytes lineatus (Schneider, 1799) is a medium-sized frog distributed throughout South America and found in the Amazonia and Cerrado domains of Brazil. Here we document two new records of this species in forested areas in the state of Amapá, northern Brazil, and provide an updated distribution map. The record from Laranjal do Jari extends the distribution of L. lineatus approximately 78 km northeast from the nearest locality, Floresta Estadual do Paru, in the municipality of Monte Alegre, state of Pará, Brazil, and helps to fill information gaps.
