Early development of two species of Phyllomedusa (Anura: Phyllomedusinae)
We present a comparative study of the early development of Phyllomedusa azurea and P. sauvagii, in order to discuss morphological and ontogenetic variations of ecological and systematic interest. Similarities between the species include the large, yolk-rich eggs, the curled embryos at tail bud stage...
