Climatic conditions in altitudinal gradients directly affect local biota and influence the richness and abundance of species, generating patterns of distribution proportional to what the environment favors. Each organism responds differently to environmental variations and amphibians are considered as the group of animals most sensitive to these changes. Studies such as this are necessary to identify the distribution of amphibians in altitudinal gradients in the South of Bahia, helping in the conservation of this group, especially in poorly sampled regions. This research investigates whether in the Estação Ecológica Estadual Wenceslau Guimarães there is a variation in the structure of the amphibian community along an altitudinal gradient, distributed in 500, 600, 700, and 800 meters elevations in relation to sea level. The main objectives are: (i) to evaluate the relationship between the wealth and abundance of the anurofauna with the altitude in the different altitudinal levels; (ii) to identify environmental variables that associate with richness along the altitudinal gradient. In addition, it is intended (iii) to carry out a herpetofaunistic inventory of this area.
Key words: amphibians, community structure, altitudinal gradient, diversity, Atlantic forest.
