... (Fig. 2) and three tadpoles of Pelobates fuscus (Fig. 3) were found in a salt pond (Fig. 4). Figs. 1-2), and provide further support that both species are more frequently found in the Peripannonian and mountain-valley parts of Serbia. In addition, this locality is currently among the most southern records for both species in Serbia. Therefore, it is necessary to intensify research in other ...

Las arañas de Trechaleidae pueden estar entre los depredadores más frecuentes de anuros pequeños en los bosques neotropicales. En esta familia, se sabe que Cupiennius coccineus, una de las especies más grandes del género, es depredadora de ranas. Tres de 15 eventos de depredación de ranas por arañas en Costa Rica fueron causados por esta especie qu...

We present the updated distribution of batracho-and herpetofauna in southern and southeastern Serbia, based on literature and new field records for 16 amphibian and 22 reptile species. In these two biogeographic regions, already recognized as biodiversity hotspots, we discovered two new amphibian species with limited distribution: Hyla orientalis and Pelobates balcanicus. Also, one species (Triturus ivanbureshi) has restricted distribution, while one (Bombina bombina) is rare. Four reptile species have limited distributions and six are rare in these regions. The presence of hybrid zones and the influence of the Mediterranean climate make southern and southeastern Serbia areas of great importance and the target for future ecological and conservation studies in Serbia.
... endemic species), or for the species which are regarded as culturally or societally important (Oliver et al. 2021). During the last decade, the number of studies regarding national distribution of Serbian amphibians has increased considerably (Vukov et al. 2013, Sterijovski 2014, Đorđević et al. 2016, Jović et al. 2016, Urošević et al. 2018, Vučić et al. 2020, Urošević 2021, which was initiated by the need to publish the Red Books of Serbian Fauna I and II -Amphibians and Reptiles as well as to implement Natura 2000 networks and prepare national conservation legislative. The need for continuous updates of the national fauna still remained current. ...
... The tree frog (Hyla arborea s. l.) was mentioned as a part of the Serbian fauna in the oldest published studies (Đorđević 1900) and considered common and widespread, wherever it had suitable living conditions (Radovanović 1951). After that, the published distribution data on the tree frog remains scarce and usually focused only on certain places or regions (Prša 1959, Pasuljević 1968, Džukić 1972, Ham et al. 1981, Crnobrnja 1982, Tadijan & Mikeš 1984, Tadijan 1986, Crnobrnja & Rohalj 1988, Pantelić 1995, Ivančević et al. 2007, Crnobrnja-Isailović et al. 2012, Sterijovski 2014, Đorđević et al. 2016, Jović et al. 2016, Urošević 2021. The study by Vukov et al. (2013) groups tree frogs with the most widespread amphibians inhabiting the entire territory of Serbia, but without accurate georeferenced data. ...
We present the updated distribution data of the Hyla arborea species complex
in Serbia. Hyla arborea inhabits all biogeographic regions, while Hyla orientalis
inhabits only the easternmost parts of north-eastern, eastern and south-eastern
Serbia. Potential hybrid zone encompasses parts of central and southern Serbia
from the Đerdap gorge, over Niš to Bosilegrad. Since the taxonomic separation between the tree frog taxa was not yet recognized in national nomenclature, we
propose the official Serbian names. The species H. arborea will keep the standard
Serbian name “Gatalinka”, while for the species H. orientalis we propose the name
“Istočna gatalinka”.
