CABALLERO-GINI, Andrea et al. Long-Standing Misidentification of Rhinella icterica (Spix, 1824) Specimens From Paraguay. Rev. latinoam. herpetol. [online]. 2023, vol.6, n.1, e596.  Epub 31-Ago-2023. ISSN 2594-2158.  https://doi.org/10.22201/fc.25942158e.2023.01.596.

In this work, we reanalyzed specimens from Paraguay assigned to the species Rhinella icterica from the departments of Canindeyú and Amambay located in the Cerrado ecoregion. Based on the evaluation of external morphological characters, we conclude that they should be assigned to the species Rhinella cerradensis. On the other hand, we consider that there is no evidence that R. icterica is present in the country.
