Comment
See Garcia, Vinciprova, and Haddad, 2003, Herpetologica, 59: 350–363, for elevation from subspecies status under Hyla pulchella and account describing vocalization and tadpole morphology; these authors noted that Hyla joaquini is more similar to Hyla semiguttata than to Hyla pulchella. Ananias, Garcia, and Recco-Pimentel, 2004, Hereditas, Lund, 140: 42–48, commented on karyotype. In the Hyla pulchella group of Faivovich, Garcia, Ananias, Lanari, Basso, and Wheeler, 2004, Mol. Phylogenet. Evol., 32: 945. In the Hypsiboas pulchellus group of Faivovich, Haddad, Garcia, Frost, Campbell, and Wheeler, 2005, Bull. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist., 294: 87–88. See comments by Antunes, Faivovich, and Haddad, 2008, Copeia, 2008: 170–190. Widholzer and Prieto-Torres, 2022, North-West. J. Zool., Romania, 18: 168–178, discussed distribution pattern, niche conservatism, and ecological differentiation.
