Potencial riqueza de anuros na comunidade Bom Jesus, floresta nacional de Tefé - AM

Abstract

The aim of the present study was to present a list of anurans from Bom Jesus community located at the National Forest of Tefé, Amazonas state, evaluating the richness and the abundance of them, as well as to register the habitats and microhabitats used by the species. Were registered 26 anuran species distributed in 11 genus and six families. The Hylidae family was the most representative and the most abundant species was Leptodactylus fuscus. The largest richness of species was registered for the forest areas and the main microhabitat used by the anurans was the small shrub. The knowledge on the biodiversity of a conservation unit is one of the basic tools inside of a handling plan, therefore, the data of the present study will collaborate for the construction of the handling plan of FLONA Tefé and for the knowledge of the amphibian diversity from Amazon areas.
