Anurans in forest fragments along the upper Glória River, Minas Gerais, Brazil

The Brazilian Atlantic Forest is a biodiversity hotspot, harboring many endemic species threatened byanthropogenic actions. Although less than 15% of the natural vegetation remains, this biome currently supports morethan 600 amphibian species, representing more than half of Brazilian amphibian diversity. However, a notable lack ofinformation regarding the richness and distribution of this taxonomic group in this biome persists. To fill in some gapsin our knowledge, we provide a checklist of anurans from a highly fragmented unprotected area of the Atlantic Forestin southeastern Brazil. Through fieldwork and bibliographic review, we recorded 44 species in the area, a noteworthyassemblage, especially when compared with the nearest protected area, which harbors 58 species. Additionally, weprovide novel data about the critically endangered Garcia’s Small Frog (Ischnocnema garciai), discuss potential impactsrelated to the presence of American Bullfrogs (Aquarana catesbeiana) in the area, and document amphibian mortalitydue to electric fences. In summary, we show that even fragmented and unprotected areas of the Atlantic Forest stillharbor substantial anuran diversity.
