Evidence for the recognition of two species of Anolis formerly referred to as A. tropidogaster (Squamata: Dactyloidae)

Köhler, Gunther; Batista, Abel; Vesely, Milan; Ponce, Marcos; Carrizo, Arcadio; Lotzkat, Sebastian (MagnoliaPress, 2012)

Based on differences in hemipenial morphology, male dewlap coloration, pholidosis, and 16S mtDNA, we recognize two species of anoles related to what was formerly referred to as Anolis tropidogaster: Anolis tropidogaster ...

Two new fringe-limbed frogs of the genus Ecnomiohyla (Anura: Hylidae) from Panama

Batista, Abel; Hertz, Andreas; Mebert, Konrad; Köhler, Gunther; Lotzkat, Sebastian; Ponce, Marcos; Vesely, Milan (MagnoliaPress, 2014)

Forest canopy-dwelling frogs are usually among the rarest anuran species observed in the neotropical forest, mainly because they fall outside of the scope of the standard search methods used by herpetologists. During field ...

Evaluating the probability of avoiding disease-related extinctions of Panamanian amphibians through captive breeding programs

Gratwicke, B; Ross, H; Batista, Abel; Chaves, G.; Crawford, A.J.; Elizondro, L.; Estrada, A.; Evans, M.; Garelle, D.; Guerrel, J.; Hertz, A.; Hughey, M.; Jaramillo, C.A.; Kocke, B.; Mandica, M.; Medina, D.; Richards-Zawacki, C.L.; Ryan, M.J.; Sosa-Bartuano, A.; Voyles, J.; Walker, B.; Woodhams, D.C.; Ibáñez, R. (Animal Conservation, 2015)

Amphibians around the world are declining from threats that cannot currently be mitigated, making it impossible to safeguard some species in their natural habitats. Amphibians in the mountainous neotropics are one example ...

FOUR NEW SPECIES OF ANOLES (GENUS ANOLIS) FROM THE SERRANIA DE TABASARA , WEST-CENTRAL PANAMA (SQUAMATA: POLYCHROTIDAE)

Köhler, Gunther; Ponce, Marcos; Sunyer, Javier; Batista, Abel (The Herpetologis League, Inc, 2007)

ABSTRACT: We describe four new species of anoles (genus Anolis) from the Serranı´a de Tabasara´, westcentral Panama. Two of the new species are most similar in external morphology to a cluster of Central American species ...

Mitochondrial DNA diversity in the Kuna Amerinds of Panama

Batista, Oriana; Kolman, Connie J.; Bermingham, Eldredge (Oxford University Press, 1995)

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplotype diversity was determined for 63 Chlbcha-speaking Kuna Amerinds sampled widely across their geographic range in eastern Panama^ The Kuna data were compared with mtDNA control region I ...
