NEW DISTRIBUTION RECORD OF Boana caiapo (ANURA, HYLIDAE) IN BRAZILIAN CERRADO
Boana caiapo is a hylid treefrog with occurrence in the states of Goiás, Mato Grosso, Pará, and Tocantins. We provide a new record of the occurrence of B. caiapo in the state of Mato Grosso, Brazilian Cerrado (Neotropical Savana). The record extends its known distribution approximately 330 km Northwest of the type locality (Aragarças municipality, Goiás) and 263 km Northwest of the nearest known locality (Cocalinho municipality, Mato Grosso state). All localities belong to the Tocantins-Araguaia River basin, reinforcing the restricted distribution of this species. Studies related to new records of species are important to direct conservation proposals.
