Age and size at sexual maturity, longevity, and potential reproductive in 2 anuran species Leptodactylus mystacinus and Leptodactylus latinasus from a soybean crop (CS) and at the natural reserve Parque General San Martin (PGSM) (Entre Rios-Argentina) were estimated and compared using skeletochronology methods. L. latinasus differed (p< 0.01) in average age between sites. Sexual maturity was not observed in L. latinasus from CS while in L. mystacinus it was reached at 3 years in PGSM and 4 years at CS. Younger anurans of PGSM begin to reproduce earlier respect to findings in soybean crop.
