Hylidae is a large family of American, Australopapuan, and temperate Eurasian treefrogs of approximately 870 known species, divided among four subfamilies. Although some groups of Hylidae have been addressed phylogenetically, a comprehensive phylogenetic analysis has never been presented. The first goal of this paper is to review the current state of hylid systematics. We focus on the very large subfamily Hylinae (590 species), evaluate the monophyly of named taxa, and examine the evidential basis of the existing taxonomy. The second objective is to perform a phylogenetic analysis using mostly DNA sequence data in order to (1) test the monophyly of the Hylidae; (2) determine its constituent taxa, with special attention to the genera and species groups which form the subfamily Hylinae, and c) propose a new, monophyletic taxonomy consistent with the hypothesized relationships. We present a phylogenetic analysis of hylid frogs based on 276 terminals, including 228 hylids and 48 outgroup taxa. Includ... Résumé RESUMO A família Hylidae é constituída por aproximadamente 870 espécies, agrupadas em quatro subfamílias e com distribuição nas Américas, Austrália/Papua-Nova Guiné e Eurásia. Apesar de alguns grupos de Hylidae terem sido estudados separadamente, uma hipótese filogenética compreensiva para a família nunca foi proposta. O objetivo inicial desse estudo é rever o atual estado sistemático da família Hylidae. Atenção especial é dada à subfamília Hylinae (590 especies), para a qual nós avaliamos o monofiletismo dos taxa atualmente reconhecidos e examinamos as bases do arranjo taxonômico aceito no presente. O segundo objetivo é realizar uma análise filogenética usando caracteres obtidos, em sua maioria, a partir de seqüências de ADN, a fim de (1) testar o monofiletismo da família Hylidae;(2) determinar sua constituição taxonômica, dando ênfase aos gêneros e grupos de espécies incluídos na subfamília Hylinae; e (3) propor uma nova taxonomia baseada em grupos monofiléticos e consistente com a hipótese filog... Resumen RESUMEN Hylidae es una familia muy grande (aproximadamente 870 especies conocidas) de ranas arboricolas de America, Australia y Papua, y Eurasia, y esta dividida en cuatro subfamilias. Aunque existen algunos estudios que analizan las relaciones filogeneticas de algunos grupos aislados de Hylidae, no existe ningun analisis filogenetico de toda la familia. Los objetivos de este trabajo son, primero, revisar el estado actual de la sistematica de la familia, haciendo enfasis en la subfamilia Hylinae, que es la mas grande (590 especies), y evaluando la evidencia existente para la monofilia de los distintos agrupamientos taxonomicos. El segundo objetivo es realizar un analisis filogenetico basado principalmente en secuencias de ADN, con el proposito de a) testear la monofilia de la familia Hylidae, b) determinar que taxa la constituyen, con especial atencion en los generos y grupos de especies de la subfamilia Hylinae, c) proponer una nueva taxonomia monofiletica, consistente con nuestra hipotesis filog...

The horned frog family, Ceratophryidae, currently comprises three genera and 12 extant species, distributed from the Caribbean lowlands to the Pampean grasslands. Horned frogs are fossorial species that are remarkable in terms of their adult and larval morphology, karyotype, behavior, and other aspects of their biology. In this paper we present a molecular phylogenetic analysis with the goals of: (1) exploring the relationships among the species of Ceratophryidae; (2) studying the evolution of polyploidy; (3) studying the evolution of cocoon formation and larval development duration associated with surviving in semiarid environments; and (4) reviewing the ceratophryid fossil record that could be relevant as calibration points in molecular divergence estimations. The analysis included 11 of the 12 extant species and, when possible, multiple exemplars per species, as well as multiple outgroups. Sequence data were obtained on seven mitochondrial and six nuclear genes for up to 8200 bp per specimen....
