  • tis zones have been reported in a number of Rhabdias species, suggesting that hermaphroditism is characteristic for this genus. In some species, however, testis zones were not found and this led to conclusions on their parthenogenesis (Lhermitte-Vallarino and Bain 2004). In R. androgyna, we observed testis zones in some of the specimens only and always in one syngonium (more often in the posterior one), but not in both. We, therefore, consider that the absence of testis zones in some specimens of Rhabdias spp. does not constitute unambiguous evidence of their parthenogenesis.
  • The Neotropical Realm is the region with the highest amphibian species richness worldwide (Duellman 1999). This said, a comparatively small amount of Rhabdias species are currently known from the Neotropics (16 out of more than 70 comprising the world fauna), indicating that far more species are yet to be discovered.
