Descriptions of New Hylid Frogs From Mexico and Central America
"Descriptions of New Hylid Frogs From Mexico and Central America" by William E. Duellman is a scientific publication produced in the late 20th century, specifically in 1968. The book focuses on the biodiversity and classification of new hylid frogs discovered in Mexico and Central America, documenting several new species and subspecies identified during Duellman’s fieldwork in these regions. In this publication, Duellman presents detailed descriptions, diagnoses, and comments on the relationships of five new species and one subspecies of hylid frogs. The text includes thorough anatomical and morphological analyses, comparing these species with known relatives, and describing their distinctive traits. The findings are based on a combination of fieldwork and analysis of specimens, highlighting the diversity of amphibian life in the highlands of Central America and Mexico, particularly in less accessible areas where new species continue to be discovered. The text serves as an essential contribution to the understanding of hylid diversity, ecology, and conservation in these regions.
