The special issue Systematics and Conservation of Neotropical Amphibians and Reptiles is now closed, all submitted papers have been published. The final tally is 14 papers, covering frogs, salamanders, caecilians, lizards, and snakes from throughout the Neotropics, with specific studies from Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Paraguay and Brazil. Authors in this special issue named a new genus of frogs (Qosqophryne), four new species of frogs (one terrestrial-breeding frog and three glassfrogs) and five new lizards (three tropidurid and two gymhnophthalmid lizards). A monograph on glassfrogs of Ecuador span the three thematic areas. Among contributions on biogeography, approaches ranged from species distribution patterns to the use of barcoding at the country level, phylogenomic analyses using ultra-conserved elements, and island biology. The remaining studies examined current conservation issues, examining the impact of mining, fungal disease, and the conservation implications of endemism.
Here's the final list of articles:
