Boana semilineata (Spix)

Boana semilineata was detected only in DACNIS non-profit organization, in Ubatuba municipality, State of São Paulo. We recorded 30 advertisement calls from three different males ( Table 2 ; Figure 8 ; SM I). The advertisement call was formed by one or more equal notes in a pulse-repetition sound ( Köhler et al. 2017), but calls formed by one note seem to be more common (personal observation).
