Abstract
Objective : To record the diversity of Anura associated with the Manantial Community Nature Reserve, Florencia, Caquet a , Colombia. Methodology : The eld phase was carried out by means of auditory and visual intensive search in two habitats: quebrada and riparian forest. SigmaPlot 1 1.0, 9.0 and virtual program Estimates iNEXT statistical program was used. Results : A total of 564 individuals of Anura, cor- responding to 14 species, nine genera and six families were recorded. The family Leptodactylidae had the highest species richness with 4 corresponding to 3 genera ( Adenomera, Lithodytes and Leptodactylus ); the aromobatidae ( Hyloxalus bokagei ) and Centrolenidae family ( Teratohyla Midas ) presented only one species each. Discussion : Both the creek and riparian forest showed similar values of species richness, which may be due to the structural complexity in relation to the types of niche that can o er anura and environmental variables associated with these systems because to the presence of di erent layers and variety microhabitat. Conclusion : This type of research allows us to understand how ecosystems are in terms of diversity and abundance of species structure comprising the same.
