Bioacoustics of Melanophryniscus moreirae

Remarks. The specific epithet, moreirae , is a Latin genitive of “ Moreira” honoring Carlos Moreira (1869– 1946), Brazilian zoologist and collector of the majority of the type series (Lavilla et al. , 2023). We note that the formation of the name is correct (masculine genitive). Miranda-Ribeiro considered “Moreira” as a Latin name and validly applied the declination to “moreirae ” (see ICZN 1999 , Article 31, Subheading 31.1.1 and Examples). Ahl (1938) described and illustrated the tadpole (as Dendrophryniscus moreirae Miranda-Ribeiro ). Habitat, adult and larvae habits, eggs, tadpoles, and food described by Bokermann (1967) . Habitat and habits were treated by Guix et al. (1998) . The tadpole was extensively compared to other species of the genus by Baldo et al. (2014) . The advertisement call was described by Forti et al. (2019) . Dormancy and hibernacula used during cold season were described by Carvajalino-Fernández et al. (2013) . Species distribution modeling to investigate the potential effects of climate change on the species was presented by Zank et al. (2014) .
