摘要:Proceratophrys Miranda-Ribeiro, 1920 includes
18 species of cycloramphids (Frost 2009)
commonly known as the smooth horned frogs
(Frank and Ramus 1995). As indicated by the
group’s common name, the eyelids of many
species are adorned with elongate dermal
appendages (for review see Prado and Pombal
2008). Several other species of Proceratophrys
lack conspicuous palpebral appendages, including
the type species P. bigibbosa (Peters 1872) and
P. brauni Kwet and Faivovich 2001. These
species are included in the P. bigibbosa species
group, which was characterized by Lynch (1971)
as lacking hornlike palpebral appendages and
having a short, blunt snout, postocular cranial
protuberances, and large marginal tubercles on
eyelids.
