"Cranial Osteology of the Hylid Frog, Smilisca baudini" by Linda Trueb is a scientific publication written in the late 20th century. This work presents an in-depth analysis of the cranial anatomy of the Neotropical tree frog Smilisca baudini, highlighting its osteological features. The book contributes to the understanding of hylid frogs, which are notable for their diverse cranial structures, aiming to fill a gap in the existing literature on this subject. The content of the book offers a comprehensive examination of the internal cranial osteology of Smilisca baudini, based on meticulous anatomical studies. Trueb describes various structures, including the olfactory region, nasal cavities, and several cranial bones, detailing their significance and relationships within the frog's anatomy. Comparative analyses are made against known hylids, providing insights into cranial diversity within the family. The findings are bolstered by illustrations and a systematic overview of the anatomical variations observed, establishing a foundational resource for future research on hylid cranial morphology.
