Diversity of larval and adult anurans in Minas Gerais, Brazil

We conducted a survey of tadpoles and adult anurans in several ponds in the State of Minas Gerais, Brazil. We determined the taxonomic identities of the tadpoles by matching the tadpole DNA barcodes (16S) with the respective barcodes of adults. We provide descriptions and illustrations of the larval morphology of these anurans, including their coloration in life. The tadpoles we collected were screened for symptoms of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) infection, by visually inspecting the keratinous mouth parts under a dissecting microscope.
