Resumen

Los reportes de amplexos interespecíficos son comunes en especies de reproducción explosiva, sin embargo, los amplexos interespecíficos con individuos muertos son raros. Aquí, reportamos dos casos de amplexos interespecíficos en dos machos de Smilisca cyanosticta, uno con una hembra de Agalychnis moreletii y otro con una hembra muerta de Craugastor decoratus, este tipo de amplexos representan una pérdida de energía para el macho involucrado y evita que se reproduzca.
