The genus Brachycephalus is endemic to the Atlantic forest of Brazil and currently comprises 21 species. Most of them are restricted to high elevation areas along the main mountain ranges of the biome. These species exhibit extremely small adult body size and share morphological features due to evolutionary process of miniaturization. Despite of the recent description of new species, some characteristics, such as diversity, species distribution, and evolutionary history, are still poor understood. Here, we addressed the variation of morphological, ecological, and genetic traits of Brachycephalus populations along their distribution. In the first chapter we described morphometric variation within more than one thousand individuals from sever...
