Advertisement call of Scinax strigilatus (Spix, 1824) (Anura: Hylidae) from southern Bahia, Brazil

Anura Hylidae

Abstract

Scinax strigilatus (Spix, 1824) is a member of the Scinax catharinae species group that inhabits forested streams in the Atlantic Rainforest of southern Bahia, northeastern Brazil. The loss of the holotype resulted in years of nomenclatural confusion solved with the designation of a neotype and the redescription of the species by Pimenta et al. (2007). Aiming to contribute to the taxonomic status and natural history of the species, we describe herein the advertisement call of Scinax strigilatus (Fig. 1A).
