| Summary | "A Taxonomic Revision of the Leptodactylid Frog Genus Syrrhophus Cope" by John D. Lynch is a scientific publication written in the late 20th century. The work presents a detailed taxonomic analysis of the genus Syrrhophus, which encompasses a group of frogs found in regions ranging from Texas to Peru. The book focuses on the classification and characteristics of various frog species previously grouped under this genus, providing a clarification of their taxonomy and phylogenetic relationships. The opening of the publication outlines the historical context of the genus Syrrhophus, discussing its initial classification by Cope and subsequent revisions by other herpetologists. Lynch begins by presenting a review of previous works, the definitions of species complexes, and the methodology employed in his revision. He highlights the necessity of reexamining the morphological characteristics of the species to resolve ambiguities in their classification, emphasizing the role of physical traits such as palmar tubercles and body size in distinguishing species. The introduction sets the stage for a detailed exploration into the distinctions among the taxonomic groups within the genus, aimed at enhancing understanding of their biodiversity and evolution.
