Nueva utilización de sustratos verticales por Thoropa miliaris (Spix, 1824) (Anura: cycloramphidae) en el estado de Minas Gerais, sudeste de Brasil

Anurans exhibit diverse locomotor modes and are found in a wide variety of habitats. Furthermore, despite speciesspecific preferences, several anurans can explore unusual habitats or substrates. This is the case of Thoropa miliaris, a cycloramphid frog endemic to the Brazilian Atlantic Forest biome. This species is highly specialized in rocky substrates of freshwater and coastal environments; however, it has been found using bromeliad axils. Beyond bromeliads, the use of other types of vegetation by T. miliaris has never been reported. Herein, we report for the first time the use of shrub vegetation by this species in the state of Minas Gerais, southeastern Brazil.
