| Summary: | We report the geographical distribution extension of Scinax cardosoi to the central region of the State of Minas Gerais, at Espinhaço Mountain Range. During field work in November and December 2009 at the Municipality of Conceição do Mato Dentro, we collected some S. cardosoi specimens associated to temporary ponds, near to permanent streams in open and forested areas, in a transitional area of Atlantic Forest and Cerrado domains. The present record extends the distribution of S. cardosoi ca. 333 km from the other record of this species in the State of Minas Gerais. |
