Flying Southward Thirty-Three Degrees to Catch More Frogs

This chapter elaborates on the spread of frogs, plethodontid salamanders, and caecilians found within Ildefonso Muñoz's place, also known as Muñozlandia, on the north bank of the Río Aquarico. It explains that Muñozlandia served as a research base for several researchers. The frogs at Santa Cecilia could be partitioned into those limited to primary forests against those that occurred in disturbed areas. The chapter highlights how the populations of tropical frogs vary through time or searching methods. It also looks into the features of several frogs and other animals, such as Nyctimantis rugiceps, Caiman crocodilus, Ctenophryne geayi, and Phyllomedusa vaillantii.
