Bioacoustics and molecular genetics reveal a new species of glassfrog, genus Chimerella (Anura: Centrolenidae), from white sand outcrops in the Yungas ecoregion of northeastern Peru
Pablo J. Venegas, Luis A. García-Ayachi, Jörn Köhler, Miguel Vences
ABSTRACT
Based on molecular genetics, bioacoustics, and morphological comparisons, we provide independent lines of evidence for the recognition and description of a new species of Chimerella from the Amazonian slopes of the eastern Andes in northeastern Peru, departments of Amazonas and San Martín. Chimerella zoeterra sp. n. is distinguished from C. corleone and C. mira by exhibiting a light yellow-green dorsum covered with dark green punctuation and scattered black flecks in life, and the iris bearing an orange or grayish-red median streak. However, in life, the new species is morphologically indistinguishable from C. mariaelenae, differentiated from it only by the dorsal coloration in preservative (ethanol 70%): cream with a lavender hue in the new species and distinctly lavender in C. mariaelenae. The advertisement call of the new species differs from the calls of all other nominal Chimerella species by qualitative and quantitative character traits. Its call consists of 3 to 5 high-pitched, pulsed notes of 26–35 ms duration. Genetically, samples of the new species form a divergent mitochondrial lineage with uncorrected pairwise distances for the 16S rRNA gene of 2.3–4.2% to the other three nominal species of Chimerella. Furthermore, there is a lack of haplotype sharing with other nominal species in certain nuclear markers studied (RAG-1, KIAA 1239, and SACS). The new species inhabits riparian vegetation of black water streams in humid montane forest on white sand outcrops.

Teeny tiny orange toadlet found in Brazil
A unique mating call led biologists to this newly discovered pint-sized amphibian.
A new pumpkin toadlet species was recently discovered in the mountains of southern Brazil. Brachycephalus lulai is just over one centimeter (only 0.39 inches) long and the size of a pencil tip. It’s a completely new species of frog, and detailed in a study published this week in the journal PLOS One. “This new species is unique due to a combination of many characteristics,” Marcos R. Bornschein, a study co-author biologist at the Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP) in São Paulo, Brazil, tells Popular Science. “But it stands out because of its orange coloration and particular features of its advertisement call, including the presence of four pulses per note...”
