Scinax proboscideus is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is found in French Guiana, Guyana, Suriname, and possibly Brazil. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and intermittent freshwater marshes.
Rhinella proboscidea is a species of small South American toad in the family Bufonidae, common in the Amazon rainforest. It is the only species known to practice reproductive necrophilia.
Dendrophryniscus proboscideus is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is endemic to Southeastern Brazil and known from isolated records in fragments of Atlantic Forest in eastern Bahia and northeastern Minas Gerais states.
Scinax acuminatus is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay, and possibly Uruguay. Its natural habitats are moist savanna, subtropical or tropical moist shrubland, subtropical or tropical seasonally wet or flooded lowland grassland, freshwater lakes, intermittent freshwater lakes, freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marshes, pastureland, rural gardens, heavily degraded former forest, ponds, and canals and ditches. It breeds in bodies of water. It is threatened by eventual habitat loss, but the population is currently fairly stable, as it adapts fairly well to human encroachment and development.
Scinax altae is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to Panama where it occurs in the Pacific lowlands between the Chiriquí Province in the west and Panamá Province in the east. The type series was collected by Emmett Reid Dunn and his wife from "Summit" in the Panama Canal Zone in 1932.
Scinax constrictus is a species of frog in the family Hylidae.
Scinax danae is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to southeastern Venezuela and occurs in the La Escalera region of the Sierra de Lema, Bolívar state. The specific name danae honors Dana Trueb Duellman, the daughter William E. Duellman, the scientist who described this species. Despite this, common name Bolivar snouted treefrog has been coined for this species.
Scinax elaeochroa, commonly known as the Sipurio snouted treefrog, or olive snouted treefrog, is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is found in the Caribbean lowlands of Nicaragua and Panama and in the Pacific lowlands of Costa Rica and Panama, with an isolated population in Colombia.
Scinax fuscomarginatus is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is found in northwestern Argentina, Paraguay, eastern Bolivia, southern, central, and eastern Brazil, and in scattered localities in the lowlands of eastern Venezuela and savannas of Guyana and southern Surinam as well as adjacent Brazil. As currently defined, it is one of most widespread Neotropical frogs; the northernmost records refer to what was formerly recognized as Scinax trilineatus. Common name brown-bordered snouted treefrog has been coined for this species.
Scinax garbei is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, and possibly Guyana. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical swamps, rivers, intermittent freshwater marshes, plantations, rural gardens, heavily degraded former forest, and ponds.
Scinax jolyi is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to French Guiana. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and swamps.
Scinax ruber is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is known in English as the red snouted treefrog or red-snouted treefrog, sometimes also Allen's snouted treefrog, the latter referring to the now-synonymized Scinax alleni. This widespread species is found in much of Amazonian and northern coastal South America and into Panama, as well as in some Caribbean islands as introduced populations. It is a complex containing several cryptic species.
Scinax squalirostris is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is found in southeastern, southern and central Brazil, Uruguay, northeastern Argentina, southern Paraguay, and Bolivia. The nominal species might actually represent more than one species. Common names striped snouted treefrog and long-snouted treefrog have been coined for it.
Scinax staufferi is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is found in Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, and Nicaragua. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, moist savanna, subtropical or tropical seasonally wet or flooded lowland grassland, freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marshes, pastureland, rural gardens, heavily degraded former forest, ponds, and canals and ditches.
Scinax wandae is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is found in Colombia and Venezuela. Its natural habitats are moist savanna, subtropical or tropical seasonally wet or flooded lowland grassland, freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marshes, pastureland, ponds, irrigated land, seasonally flooded agricultural land, and canals and ditches.
Scinax x-signatus is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is found in Brazil, the Guyanas, Venezuela and Colombia. Introduced populations exist on Guadeloupe and two nearby smaller islands, Marie Galante and La Désirade, and on Martinique. It may represent more than one species.
Hemiphractus proboscideus, or the Sumaco horned treefrog, is a species of frog in the family Hemiphractidae. It is found in the upper Amazon basin in extreme southwestern Colombia, Ecuador, and northern Peru.
The round-eared elephant shrew or round-eared sengi, is a species of elephant shrew (sengi) in the family Macroscelididae. It is found in Botswana, Namibia, and South Africa. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry shrubland, subtropical or tropical dry lowland grassland, and hot deserts. They eat insects, shoots, and roots. Their gestation period is 56 days.
Chaenomugil proboscideus, the snouted mullet, is a species mullet found along the western coast of North America from Mexico to Panama. It is found in rocky, areas near the coast where it feeds on algae growing on rocks which it scrapes off using its specialized teeth. This species grows to a length of 22 centimetres (8.7 in) TL. This fish is of minor importance in local commercial fisheries, mostly in Panama. This is the only known species in its genus.
Scinax manriquei is a species of frogs in the family Hylidae. It was described in 2004 from Venezuela, the same year as Scinax flavidus was described from Colombia. They are now considered to be synonyms, with Scinax manriquei having the seniority over Scinax flavidus. The species thus defined occurs in the Andean footshills of both Colombia and Venezuela. It has been found in cloud forests as well as in a variety of disturbed habitats.
Macroscelides flavicaudatus is a species of elephant shrew in the family Macroscelididae found in the central Namib desert and southern Namibia.
