Adenomera guarani sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 13EA7E3F-AFF1-4999-985E-EAB9B45109AA Figs 9–12; Tables 2–3 Diagnosis Adenomera guarani sp. nov. is recognized within Adenomera by the following combination of character states: (1) body robust, (2) medium size (adult male SVL = 20.1–26.4 mm); (3) light-colored, broad mid-dorsal stripe with diffuse borders, extending from above the vent to the scapular region; (4) a dark mask-like pattern formed by an inverted triangle in the interorbital region; (5) toe tips unexpanded with tapered point; (6) antebrachial tubercle absent; (7) exotrophic larvae; (8) labial tooth row formula (LTRF): 2(2)/3(1); (9) single-note advertisement call; (10) call notes formed by incomplete pulses; (11) relatively high note repetition rate (73–147 per minute); and (12) low pulse number (4–9 per note). Etymology The specific name guarani, used as a noun in apposition and refers to the Guaraní, a native indigenous group that inhabited in the past a vast region in South America, including areas where the new species occurs. Currently, a few indigenous communities still live in wild areas. However, the Guaraní language (Avañe′ẽ), is usually spoken by people in Paraguay and other neighboring countries and also utilized to name innumerous geographical features (e.g., rivers, wetlands, hills), animals, plants, towns, and cities.
