Abstract
In the following work we examine the richness and altitudinal distribution of Colombian Andean anurans trying to
emphasize patterns of distribution. We also supply an updated checklist of Andean anurans in Colombia. At present,
Colombian harbors about 396 Andean frogs: 153 species in the Cordillera Occidental, 187 species in the Cordillera Central, and 131 species in the Cordillera Oriental. Of these, the Cordillera Oriental presents the higher number and percentage of endemic species. The frequency distribution of altitudinal ranges for Colombian Andean frogs shows that the
majority of species have narrow altitudinal ranges, less than 500 m altitude, and only a few species have broad altitudinal
distributions. On the other hand, lowland species have broader altitudinal ranges than do highland species. The hypothesis of a wider altitudinal range of highland anurans is therefore not supported. Finally, the averages of the Jaccard similarity indices for the Andean anurans along altitudinal gradients in Colombian are approximately similar to those of other
tropical anurans reported by Huey (1978), but notably lower than those of anurans of temperate localities. Thus, these
results are in concordance with Janzens hypothesis (1967) about a broader altitudinal range for temperate species, likely
because of their higher thermal tolerance.

Introduction
Tropical zone-species have been suggested to be more habitat specific and to have narrower thermal tolerance
ranges than do temperate zone-species, because of the relative uniformity of their local environmental conditions (Janzen 1967, Huey 1978). As a consequence, faunal turnover along altitudinal gradients should be rapid
in the tropics, and tropical species should have relatively restricted altitudinal ranges, such that between altitudinal faunal and floral units overlaps would be reduced (Olson 1994, Ghalambor et al. 2005). Also, it is generally acknowledged that biological diversity is higher in the tropics than in temperate zones (Janzen 1967,
Huey 1978, Ghalambor et al. 2005) and that along elevational gradients, species richness decreases with altitude toward a faunal minimum at very high elevations, in both vertebrates and invertebrates (Bernal 2005,
Navas 2003, Poynton 2003, Bruhl et al. 1999, Patterson et al. 1996, McCoy 1990). Several biotic and abiotic
factors, as well as historical events, have been attributed to these differences in species richness and biodiversity along latitudinal and altitudinal gradients. One of these was Janzens (1967) hypothesis: that altitudinally
separated populations in the tropics will experience reduced gene flow, because the mountain passes should
be physiologically higher in the tropics, leading to greater genetic divergence that favour the allopatric speciation and higher tropical biodiversity (Ghalambor et al. 2005). Navas (2003, 2005) reviewed factors influencing herpetological diversity in Andean high-elevations. Navas (2003) argued that temperature should be the
most important single factor limiting herpetological diversity, at least in tropical Andean high-elevations,
although subsequently, Navas (2005), suggested that temperature must not be the most likely stressor limiting
anuran colonization of high elevation in the tropics, and that other environmental factors may be more important than temperature, such as water pH, intensity of UV radiation and other variables that may impact embryo
development.
Here we examine the richness and altitudinal distribution of Colombian Andean anurans trying to emphasize patterns of their distribution. First, we compare data compiled on Andean frogs (Appendix 1) with the
most current reports about frogs from the richest lowland places in Colombia, Amazona (Lynch 2005) and
Choc (Lynch & Surez 2004), to determine the peaks in species richness among these Colombian geographic
units, and to contrast the results given by Lynch et al. (1997) about biogeographic patterns of Colombian
frogs. Second, we carry out an analysis of similarity of frog species along altitudinal ranges to evaluate if tropical anurans have relatively restricted altitudinal ranges, such that overlaps between altitudinal faunas would
be reduced, according with Janzens (1967) hypothesis. Third, we compare altitudinal ranges of highland and
lowland frog species of the Andean mountains to test if highland anurans have wider altitudinal ranges than
lowland species because of the possibly broader range of environmental temperature (Ghalambor et al. 2005).
Finally, we compare similarity indices for Colombian tropical frogs along altitudinal gradients with the similarity indices reported by Huey (1978) for temperate frogs, and with a current study on elevation pattern of
frogs species in China (Fu et al. 2006), in order to test latitudinal pattern of between-altitude faunal similarity,
an extension of Janzens hypothesis (Huey 1978).

Occidental; 2. Cordillera Central; 3. Cordillera Oriental. A: Choc; B: Caribean lowlands and interandean valleys; C:
Amazona.
With respect to endemic species, the Andean Cordilleras of Colombia harbor 217 species and of these the
Cordillera Oriental presents the higher number (76), and percentage of endemicity (Table 1). This value is
notably superior to the 27 endemic species of the Biogeographic Choc (Lynch & Surez 2004), which represents the 19.4% of the total species for this ecogeografic unit and just the 0.036% of Colombian species. Contrarily, the Andean endemic species represents the 28.8% of the Colombian anurans, and specifically the
Cordillera Oriental harbors the 19% of the Andean species and the 10.1% of the Colombian anurans. In conclusion, comparing these update data about frog distribution in Colombia, the Andean mountains also harbor
the highest number of endemic species.
Finally, a cluster analysis of anuran similarity for the three Colombian cordilleras shows that the Cordillera Central is closer to Cordillera Occidental (Jaccard Index = 0.17) than Cordillera Oriental (JI = 0.11).
However, it is important to realize that anuran similarities among the three cordilleras are very low, such that
between the Cordillera Occidental and Oriental the Jaccard Index is only 0.038. It means that each Andean
mountain harbors almost its exclusive anuran fauna, or endemic anurans as mentioned above. Likely, the biogeographic history of the Andean Cordilleras has played an important role in this particular diversity for each
Andean mountain chain. For example, when the glacial and interglacial periods produced cycles of contraction and expansion of anuran habitats over long periods of time (Navas 2005, Duellman 1999), because it
could generate the scenario to speciation through vicariance, if gene flow across populations became
restricted, and then the high anuran diversity. Cladistic analysis of some anurans inhabiting the Andes (Lynch
et al. 1997, Lynch 1999) show that phylogenetically related species occur at about the same altitude, independent of their geographical distance, so Andean diversity is mainly explained through geographic replacement
of species or vicariance.

dispersion than would temperate-zone passes of equivalent altitude (Ghalambor et al. 2005). It is mainly supported because environmental temperature variation in the tropics is lower than in temperate zones, so thermal
tolerances for tropical ectothermic species should be narrower than for temperate species, and consequently
they should have narrow altitudinal ranges, as it has been confirmed in this paper.

ico to California (USA), and tested the prediction that if Janzen was right, then between-altitude faunal
similarity should vary directly with latitude. He effectively found a low faunal similarity in the tropics, and a
significant positive correlation between-latitude and faunal similarity, which was primarily a function of species replacements rather than species dropout.
Here, we compare data of Jaccard similarity indices for anurans from the three Colombian Cordilleras
(Appendix 1) with Dices faunal similarity index used by Huey (1978), in order to test if similarity indices for
Andean anurans agree with this report. That comparison is possible because these two indices are strongly
correlated (Southwood 1966), and also the altitudinal comparison between species within a band is about
1000 m wide. According to table 3, the averages of faunal similarity for these three Colombian cordilleras are
approximately similar to the anuran faunal similarity for the tropical countries studied by Huey (1978), but
notably lower than in the temperate localities. As Huey (1978) stated, these results can be in concordance with
Janzens hypothesis about a broader altitudinal range for temperature species, likely due to a wider thermal
tolerance. On the other hand, the low similarity index can mean high turnover species along altitudinal gradients, as happens in the Colombian Cordilleras.

We also gathered the altitudinal distribution of frogs of the three Colombian Cordilleras in just one data
set, to compare with a recent study on elevation patterns of frog species of the Hengduan mountains in China
(Fu et al. 2006), a latitudinal different place. To establish the latitudinal comparison between-altitude anuran
similarity for Colombia and China, we estimated the Jaccard similarity index (JSI) between two altitudinal
bands of 500 m wide, starting from 1000 m elevation in both cases, and then calculated the average of JSI for
each altitudinal transect (Colombia and China). The JSI average found for anurans in the Andean Colombian
mountains was 0.43, while the JSI average for frogs of the Hengduan mountains in China was 0.60 (Table 4).
Additionally, we compared the JSI average of frogs along Hehgduan mountains in China, from 400 to 5,000
m, with another transect of similar altitudinal gradient in the Cordillera Central of Colombia (Bernal et al.
2005), from 440 m to 4,300 m (Table 5). The average of this JSI was 0.38, which is lower than the JSI average
obtained for the China transect (0.55). Thus, these results agree with that mentioned above and with Hueys
work (1978). Because similarity indices between altitudinal bands in China are higher than in Colombia, it
means that altitudinal distribution of these species are broader than those of Andean Colombian frogs. In figure 2A it can be seen that effectively many of the Colombian Andean frogs have a restricted altitudinal range,
between 0 to 500 m, in comparison with frogs of the China mountains which exhibit a broader elevation
range, mainly between 1001-1500 m (Fig. 2D).
In conclusion, data shown here agree with Hueys (1978) reports of a latitudinal pattern of between-altitude faunal similarity, and consequently with their interpretation about Janzens hypothesis (1967): tropical

countries have a narrower fluctuation of their environmental temperature, lower than do temperate countries,
so their ectothermic species should exhibit a restricted thermal tolerance and consequently a narrow altitudinal distribution.
