Summary "The Genera of Phyllomedusine Frogs (Anura: Hylidae)" by William Edward Duellman is a scientific publication written in the late 20th century. This work focuses on the classification and characteristics of a distinct group of Neotropical hylid frogs known as phyllomedusines. The book investigates their unique traits, such as vertical pupils and specific reproductive behaviors, and aims to clarify their phylogenetic relationships within the Hylidae family. In this publication, Duellman provides an in-depth examination of the genera within the phyllomedusine lineage, discussing the morphological, chromosomal, and behavioral aspects that differentiate these frogs from other hylids. He details the classification of three main genera: "Phyllomedusa", "Agalychnis", and a newly proposed genus, "Pachymedusa". The book also delves into evolutionary adaptations of these frogs to arboreal life and examines their reproductive strategies, particularly their unique method of egg deposition. Overall, it serves as an essential resource for herpetologists and those interested in amphibian biology and taxonomy. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
