dc:description"FIGURE 7. Advertisement calls of members of the vanzolinii group that occur in close geographic proximity to Lago Preto. Space between notes was reduced so that two notes would fit into spectrogram. A) R. imitator from San Gabriel de Varadero, Loreto, Peru recorded at 23.5 ° C. Dominant frequency: 4900 Hz. Mean note length: 1.1 sec. Actual space between notes (not as pictured): 8.2 sec. Note: the note length in this spectrogram is longer than the average for this species (which is 0.7 sec, see Vocalization section), however, as mentioned above, we used this population given its close proximity to Lago Preto. B) R. flavovittata from Quebrada Blanco, Loreto, Peru recorded at 24.5 ° C. Dominant frequency: 5500 Hz. Mean note length: 1.0 sec. Space between notes (as pictured): 4.3 sec. C) R. yavaricola from Lago Preto recorded at 24 ° C. Dominant frequency: 5950 Hz. Mean note length: 0.8 sec. Actual space between notes (not as picture): 16.3 sec.";

dc:description"FIGURE 8. Distributions of Ranitomeya that occur within the forests bordered by the Ucayali, Amazon, Yavarí, and Blanco rivers. The blue color depicts areas that are prone to flooding or that are permanently flooded. These areas likely act as barriers to gene flow for most Ranitomeya species. Each colored circle represents the corresponding species at each site. The white dot depicts the only known locality of the R. cyanovittata. The area that becomes seasonally flooded was calculated from two data sources: areas classified as Várzea by the World Wildlife Foundation (Olson et al. 2001) and spatial calculations in Environmental Systems Research Institute’s GIS ArcView 9.2 that estimated the seasonally flooded areas. The latter was done by calculating the feet above sea-level of major streams that seasonally flooded throughout the area. These values were kriged to create a raster that accounted for elevation changes relative to level of the major rivers. The resulting raster was subtracted from a digital elevation model, and areas below 10 meters were classified as “ seasonally flooded ”.) Both the Varzea and “ floodable ” areas were summed to create the blue layer area depicted here. Ten meters is an average the annual fluctuation in river levels for the lower Ucayali, upper Amazon, and lower Yavari rivers (Goulding et al. 2003).";
