摘要：Dendropsophus microcephalus (Boulenger, 1898)
is a small frog; males attain a maximum snoutvent
length of 27 mm and females 32 mm
(Duellman 2001). The main diagnostic characters
of this species are: the flat shape of the head with
a round and short snout; the eyes with horizontally
elliptical pupils (McCranie and Wilson 2002); the
thighs uniformly yellow with a brown line; the
dorsum either tan-yellow or light yellow with
brown, red or tan markings; a narrow brown
lateral stripe extending from the nostril to the
sacral region or to the groin, bordered above by a
narrow white line; the dorsal pattern with either an
"X" shape in their backs or two longitudinal bars
connected with another across; however, the last
character is considered highly erratic, due to
interpopulation differences on the species
(Duellman 2001).
