Description
provided by AmphibiaWeb articles
In adult males the SVL measures 60.5-64.2 mm, and the adult female holotype was measured to be 58.6 mm SVL. The snout is rounded in dorsal view, and obtuse in profile view. Nostrils are directed laterally. The loreal region is concave. A weak supratympanic fold runs above the tympanum and continues posterior to the tympanum. Fingers are extensively webbed, with relative lengths I< II< IV< III. Finger discs are broadly expanded with rounded covers. In breeding males, the prepollex bears small nuptial excrescences. Toe discs are broadly expanded, only slightly smaller than those of fingers. Skin is smooth to weakly granular dorsally, while ventral surfaces are coarsely areolate, except for the granular skin surrounding the vent. Pupil is vertically elliptical. Males have paired vocal slits and a single subgular vocal sac (McCranie and Wilson 2002).Dorsal surfaces range from dark to light green (Lee 1996). Flanks, inner surfaces of the appendages, and the webbing between the first three fingers and first four toes are orange (Lee 1996). Ventral surfaces are light yellow or white (Lee 1996). The iris is dark red to deep purple (McCranie and Wilson 2002). The palpebral membrane has gold reticulations (Duellman 1970).Tadpoles have a robust body that is deeper than it is broad. The tail is about twice the length of the body and is acuminate. Tail musculature is well developed. The spiracle is ventrolateral and sinistral. The vent tube opens to the right of the caudal fin. Papillae border the mouth parts, except on the dorsal surface of the upper lip. There are two upper and three lower rows of denticles. Tadpoles are purplish brown in coloration (Lee 1996).The specific name moreletii is derived from Pierre-Marie Arthur Morelet, who was the collector of the syntypes (McCranie and Wilson 2002).

Distribution and Habitat
provided by AmphibiaWeb articles
Agalychnis moreletii has a patchy distribution, from the Mexican states of Puebla in the northeast (Canseco-Márquez et al. 2000), Chiapas (Duellman 1970) south-central Veracruz (Duellman 1970) and Oaxaca (Duellman 1970) to northwestern Honduras (McCranie 2007) on the Atlantic versant and along the Pacific versant from south-central Guerrero, Mexico (Lee 1996) to western Belize (Maya Mountains) to central El Salvador (Santos-Barrera et al. 2004). The elevational range is about 650 to 1,300 m asl (Santos-Barrera et al. 2004). Its habitat consists of lowland to montane moist forests, both pristine and disturbed, on slopes (Santos-Barrera et al. 2004).
Life History, Abundance, Activity, and Special Behaviors
provided by AmphibiaWeb articles
Agalychnis moreletii is critically endangered. Populations in Mexico have almost entirely disappeared, likely due to chytridiomycosis (Lips et al. 2004; Frías-Alvarez et al. 2008), and chytridiomycosis has been reported in tadpoles of El Salvadoran populations of this species (Felger et al. 2007). A. moreletii is uncommon in Belize and Honduras (Santos-Barrera et al. 2004). Although it can tolerate some habitat disturbance, numbers are declining in Guatemala and Honduras due to habitat destruction from small farming (Santos-Barrera et al. 2004). Collection of this species for the pet trade has negatively affected population numbers (Santos-Barrera et al. 2004). A. moreletii occurs in a number of protected areas (Santos-Barrera et al. 2004), but additional localities need to be included if 25% of its potential distribution range is to be protected (Urbina-Cardona and Loyola 2008).All five Agalychnis species (A. annae, A. callidryas, A. moreletii, A. saltator, and A. spurrelli) have just received CITES protection, under Appendix II (as of March 21, 2010). Within the past decade the U.S. alone has imported 221,960 Agalychnis frogs, according to the Species Survival Network (http://www.ssn.org/Meetings/cop/cop15/Factsheets/Tree_Frogs_EN.pdf) (SSN).
Life History, Abundance, Activity, and Special Behaviors
provided by AmphibiaWeb articles
Males call in chorus, with a single "wor-or-orp" in intervals of one to two minutes with a dominant frequency of 1,100 to 1,260 Hz (Lee 1996). Briggs (2010) found that acoustic traits influenced mating success, with amplectant males making more calls, longer duration calls, and shorter pauses between calls. Also, heavier males emitted calls with lower dominant frequencies (Briggs 2008). Males sometimes compete for perch sites (Briggs 2008). Adults have been found on vegetation hanging above lakes (McCranie and Wilson 2002). Females appear later in the season after heavy rains (Lee 1996). Breeding occurs in ponds (Lee 1996). Amplexus is axillary (Lee 1996). Briggs (2008) found that mating patterns varied; larger males had a mating advantage in the driest year of a three-year study of mating patterns, and size-assortative mating (by SVL) occurred in a different study year. The eggs, which have a slight green tint, are deposited in discrete gelatinous clutches of about 50 to 75 on vegetation or rocks overhanging water (Lee 1996; Gomez-Mestre et al. 2008). Fertilization success is high, with Briggs (2008) reporting 100% fertilization in 45 of 46 experimental clutches, similar to her field observations. As is the case for A. callidryas and other species in the genus Agalychnis, embryos of A. moreletii exhibit adaptive plasticity in hatching timing (Gomez-Mestre et al. 2008). Normally, embryos begin hatching 9-12 days after eggs are deposited, with most embryos hatching at night and the hatching period lasting 2-3 days. However, embryos are competent to hatch earlier, when they reach Gosner stage 23 (where the operculum has covered the venter); this occurs about 7 days post-oviposition. Premature hatching occurs in response to either mechanical disturbance (such as occurs in snake predation of the clutch) or submergence.

La granota de Morelet (Agalychnis moreletii) és una espècie de granota pertanyent a la família Hylidae. Aquesta espècie està en els Estat nord-oriental i Estat sud-central de Veracruz, de Puebla a Hondures; del nord-oest en l'Atlàntic i de l'estat sud-central de Guerrero, al Salvador central en el Pacífic, en les elevacions. Hi hauria no més d'1.500 exemplars. Abans era abundant en algunes localitzacions a Mèxic, El Salvador i Guatemala. No obstant això, els exàmens recents en Guerrero, Oaxaca i Chiapas, Mèxic, indiquen que ha desaparegut de tots els llocs examinats. És infreqüent però oposat de tant en tant en Bélice i Hondures. A Guatemala i Hondures, la població va declinar a causa de la destrucció de l'hàbitat.

Morelet's tree frog
provided by wikipedia EN
Morelet's tree frog (Agalychnis moreletii), also known as black-eyed leaf frog and popeye hyla, is a species of frog in the subfamily Phyllomedusinae. It is found in Belize, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Mexico.
Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, subtropical or tropical moist montane forest, freshwater marshes, and intermittent freshwater marshes.
Description
This is a frog that has a green body, black eyes, and a red or pink underbelly.
Distribution and habitat
They are found in moist subtropical lowland mountainous forests and wetland habitats of Belize, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Mexico. They have been collected on the Atlantic and Pacific slopes of Veracruz, Chiapas, the Maya mountains of Belize, northwestern Honduras, and El Salvador. They can live in pristine or disturbed habitats and will breed in temporary or permanent bodies of water.
Reproduction and lifecycle
They have an extended breeding season during the summer months. When choosing a mate, the females tend to search for the males with the best sounding mating call. The males whose mating calls are the longest and have the most frequent pulses in pitch are the ones who get chosen by the females. They deposit clutches of 50 to 75 eggs on vegetation or rocks over water. The eggs of the Morelet's tree frog have a green pigment and when they hatch, the larvae fall into the water to complete their development into frogs.
Conservation
Morelet's tree frog are abundant within its range and are kept as pets internationally. Industry and agriculture are thought to be the main causes of lowland montane forest destruction. The population of Morelet's tree frogs are also being affected due to a disease called Chytridiomycosis, which is an infectious disease that kills amphibians. Chytridiomycosis and habitat destruction are projected to cause the population to decline over 80% in the next 10 years. In some regions, the frogs have gone extinct completely. For example, a study done in 2004, has claimed that Morelet's tree frog may be extirpated from the region of Southern Mexico.[3]
Their survival is dependent upon several factors due to their human and disease-caused population decline. Some conservation measures are in place, while others are still in need of implementation or research. Several protected parks have been created to curb habitat destruction in areas of Central America and Mexico. Taxonomic research is currently in place to further understand the population's status. More data are needed, however, on a temporal and spatial scale to determine trends in the population of Morelet's tree frogs.

La rana de Morelet (Agalychnis moreletii) es una especie de anfibio anuro perteneciente a la familia Hylidae.[2] Se nombró para honrar a Pierre Marie Arthur Morelet.[3]
Distribución geográfica
Esta especie está en los estados nororiental y sur-central de Veracruz, México, de Puebla a Honduras; del noroeste en el Atlántico y del estado sur-central de Guerrero, México, a El Salvador central en el Pacífico, en las elevaciones. Habría no más de 1.500 ejemplares. Antes era abundante en algunas localizaciones en México, El Salvador y Guatemala. Sin embargo, los exámenes recientes en Guerrero, Oaxaca y Chiapas, indican que ha desaparecido de todos los sitios examinados. Es infrecuente pero encontrado de vez en cuando en Belice y en Honduras. En Guatemala y Honduras, la población declinó debido a la destrucción del hábitat.
Hábitat y ecosistema
Vive en tierras bajas en los bosques húmedos de montaña, en hábitat prístino y en disturbado. Se cría en cuerpos de agua intermitentes o permanentes pequeños.
-
Biomas: terrestre, de agua dulce. Tierra baja húmeda subtropical/tropical del bosque. Montaña húmeda subtropical/tropical del bosque. Pantanos/charcas dulces permanentes, debajo de 8 ha.
- Amenazas importantes: La quitridiomicosis es probablemente la causa principal de la desaparición de poblaciones en México, y la especie ahora es probablemente seriamente a riesgo de esta enfermedad. La destrucción del hábitat es también una amenaza a esta especie, que también se vendía antes como animal doméstico.

Herpetologie Agalychnis moreletii is een kikker uit de familie Phyllomedusidae. De soort werd lange tijd tot de familie boomkikkers (Hylidae) gerekend.
Naamgeving
Agalychnis moreletii werd voor het eerst wetenschappelijk beschreven door Auguste Duméril in 1853. Oorspronkelijk werd de wetenschappelijke naam Hyla moreletii gebruikt. De soortaanduiding moreletii is een eerbetoon aan de Franse natuuronderzoeker Pierre Marie Arthur Morelet (1809 - 1892).[2]
Verspreiding en habitat
Deze soort leeft in delen van Midden-Amerika.[3] Het verspreidingsgebied van Agalychnis moreletii loopt in de Caribische regio van het noordoosten van de Mexicaanse staten Puebla en Veracruz via Belize tot het noordwesten van Honduras en in de Pacifische regio van het zuiden van Guerrero via Guatemala tot in El Salvador. De soort leeft in laaglandregenwouden en bergbossen op hoogtes tussen de 300 en 1.500 meter boven zeeniveau.
Agalychnis moreletii was voorheen lokaal algemeen op bepaalde locaties in Chiapas, El Salvador en Guatemala. Inmiddels is deze kikker echter uit diverse gebieden in Mexico verdwenen. Ook in Guatemala en Honduras gaan de populaties achteruit. Verlies van habitat en de schimmelziekte chytridiomycose zijn de voornaamste bedreigende factoren.
