Filling gaps on the endangered Cerrado Rocket Frog Allobates goianus (Bokermann, 1975) (Anura: Aromobatidae): new distributional record and comments on its daily activity

Abstract

New data that seeks to fill knowledge gaps about distribution and natural history may improve our knowledge of the status of threatened species. Herein, new distributional record of the endangered species Allobates goianus is reported and information on daily activities of a population are provided using an automatic acoustic monitoring recorder. Despite the new distributional record, A. goianus has not been recorded in locations where it was previously found, we then discuss the possible causes of decline and how future efforts may help to better understand the species status.
