Abstract
We report the rediscovery and the geographic occurrence extension of Telmatobius ceiorum, an endemic frog species from northern Argentina. This marks the first record of T. ceiorum since November 1984. The frogs were observed near the village of Hualinchay, Tucuman Province, at an elevation of 2060 m. The introduction of salmonids across much of its historical range is one of the main threats that may have contributed to the decline of T. ceiorum. Our findings emphasize the need for continued monitoring and conservation efforts for the species, particularly in light of the potential expansion of invasive fish species.
期刊介绍：
Biological Conservation is an international leading journal in the discipline of conservation biology. The journal publishes articles spanning a diverse range of fields that contribute to the biological, sociological, and economic dimensions of conservation and natural resource management. The primary aim of Biological Conservation is the publication of high-quality papers that advance the science and practice of conservation, or which demonstrate the application of conservation principles for natural resource management and policy. Therefore it will be of interest to a broad international readership.
