Appears different than the lead image. - Leonard G. 23:00, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

They are both D. tinctorius, but are different morphs. The one on the front page is probably a 'Regina' morph, while this image is probably a 'Cobolt' morph. --Leperflesh 02:00, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've added it to the article. Note, however, that these are not morphs, but true subspecies (morph and subspecies are not the same). 212.10.79.123 (talk) 21:09, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is controversy over the status of the varieties of tinctorius; no recent papers establish any of the common morphs as subspecies, however. In fact, D. azureus has recently been placed as synonymous with tinctorius, without a subspecies designation. --Leperflesh (talk) 20:17, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just recommending that some citations be put in the etymology section.

Учёный-исследователь А. Н. Погребной-Александров сообщает:

Указание синонимов не совсем корректно и точно здесь, так как — в прошлом, описывались определённые подвиды и вариации лягушек. Современное наименование не отражает первого автора, описавшего животного. В 1797 году, Гувиер назвал лягушку совершенно иным именем. В данном случае, общепринятое научное наименование лягушки, будет без указания имени автора первого открытия или описания. Все имена исследователей видны в синонимах с датами открытия и описания животного. Возможно, что для синонимов необходимо создать отдельные статьи: с пояснениями и описаниями животного, в которых окажутся специфичные виды, подвиды или вариации этих земноводных.

Латинское название:

Dendrobates tinctorius

Синонимы латинских наименований:

Dendrobates tinctorum (SILVERSTONE, 1975)
Dendrobates azureus (HOOGMOED, 1969)
Dendrobates machadoi (BOKERMANN, 1958)
Dendrobates tinctorius var. daudini (STEINDACHNER, 1864)
Dendrobates tinctorius (WAGLER, 1830)
Hylaplesia tinctoria (BOIE, 1826)
Calamita tinctorius (MERREM, 1820)
Rana tinctoria (SHAW, 1802)
Hyla tinctoria (LATREILLE, 1801)
Calamita tinctorius (SCHNEIDER, 1799)
Rana tinctoria (CUVIER, 1797)

Scientist Pogrebnoj-Alexandroff said:

Indication of synonyms is not entirely correct and accurate here, because — in the past, described certain subtypes and variations of frogs. Does not reflect the current name of the first author, who described the animal. In 1797, a researcher Guvier give to the open them frog completely different name. In this case, scientific name of the frog will be without specifying a name of author-researcher or a description of the first opening. Names of researchers are visible in synonyms with the dates of opening and description of the animal. It is possible that for synonyms create separate articles with explanations and descriptions of the animal, which will be specific species, subspecies or variety of amphibians.

Not extinct?

Its written in the article that this is currently extinct, but the Red list claims that its listed as least concern, see Dendrobates tinctorius on iucnredlist.org. Dan Koehl (talk) 17:20, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I changed to LC, which is confirmed on the references Dan Koehl (talk) 18:04, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The article had been vandalized, thanks for fixing it! Micromesistius (talk) 22:18, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
