The Amazonian savanna, despite being highly threatened, harbors a rich diversity of amphibians. A recent study revealed 64 species of anurans in this region, with the Hylidae family standing out. The distribution of these species is influenced by environmental factors such as elevation and soil moisture, highlighting the fragility of these ecosystems. The research demonstrates that am-phibian diversity in the Amazonian savanna is highly sensitive to habitat changes, making the conservation of these areas crucial for the preservation of these species and the ecosystem services they provide.
