Description:

Volume III is the third in a four-volume series that provides comprehensive, well-illustrated, and authoritative insights, making it an invaluable resource for biologists, conservationists, and others. The series explores, in comprehensive detail, the cultural history and the rich amphibian diversity of Ecuador, providing a thorough review of biogeography, amphibian declines, and conservation.

Volume III specifically focuses on Craugastoridae. Characteristics of each species are listed, defined, and compared to similar other species. Reproductive behaviour, where known, is described as data on vocalizations. Amphibian distributions are detailed and illustrated with physiographic maps with dots. The volume also addresses the declines, extinctions, and conservation status of each species, noting their occurrence in reserves.
