FIGURE 5 in A new species of the Scinax catharinae Group (Anura: Hylidae) from Northeastern Brazil
FIGURE 5. Nuptial pad of Scinax melanodactylus sp. nov. (CFBH 36902). (A) Dorsal view of finger II. (B) Ventral view of finger II. (A–B) Scale bar=500µm. (C–E) Scanning electron micrographs of nuptial pad. (C) General view of finger II. Notice the epidermal modification of the nuptial pad area. Scale bar=100µm. (D) Higher magnification of nuptial pad viewed from above showing the irregularly EPs, scale bar=20µm. (E) Detailed view of a single EP, scale bar= 5µm. (F-H) Nuptial pad of Scinax agilis. (F) Dorsal view of finger II. Scale bar =500µm. (G) Scanning electron micrographs of finger II. Note the absence of a distinctively area. Scale bar= 200µm. (H) Detail of the area delimited in (G) showing absence of EPs. Scale bar= 20µm. (I- J) Nuptial pad of Scinax berthae. (I) Scanning electron micrographs of finger II. Note the presence of EPs. Scale bar= 200µm. (J) Detail of the area delimited in (I) showing smooth EPs. Scale bar= 50µm.
