New Brazilian Forms of Hyla
Abstract
The author describes three new species and three new subspecies of Hyla,
found during her work toward a monograph of the species of Hyla which
occur in Brazil. The new species are: Hyla adenoderma from Rondonia territory;
H. longilinea from the high mountains at Pogos de Caldas, Minas
Gerais; and H. egleri from Belem do Para. The last-named is a northern representative
of the forms belonging to the group of H. catharinae from the
southern and southeastern serras. The new subspecies are: H. duartei caldarum
from Pogos de Caldas; H. raddiana joaquini from the highest and
most southern part of the state of Santa Catarina; and H. rubra orientalis
from the Atlantic coastal area of Brazil.
