New amphibian records for the Serranía de San Jacinto, Bolívar Department, Colombia

The San Jacinto Highlands are a mountainous formation that is part of the Montes de María in theColombian Caribbean Region. It harbors remnants of Tropical Dry Forest, which is rapidly disappearing due to developmentfor agriculture and livestock. This loss impacts amphibian diversity by fragmenting habitat, creating homogeneouslandscapes, and reducing environmental complexity. Despite its ecological importance, information on theherpetofauna in this region is limited due to access and security issues. We herein present five new amphibian records(Rhinella alata, Hyalinobatrachium tatayoi, Colostethus inguinalis, Boana rosenbergi, and Dendropsophus ebraccatus) forthe Bolívar Department, which extend the distributions of these species.

Abstract

The San Jacinto Highlands are a mountainous formation that is part of the Montes de María in theColombian Caribbean Region. It harbors remnants of Tropical Dry Forest, which is rapidly disappearing due to developmentfor agriculture and livestock. This loss impacts amphibian diversity by fragmenting habitat, creating homogeneouslandscapes, and reducing environmental complexity. Despite its ecological importance, information on theherpetofauna in this region is limited due to access and security issues. We herein present five new amphibian records(Rhinella alata, Hyalinobatrachium tatayoi, Colostethus inguinalis, Boana rosenbergi, and Dendropsophus ebraccatus) forthe Bolívar Department, which extend the distributions of these species.
