The Estação Ecológica de Jataí comprises one of the largest mesophytic semideciduous forest and savanna remnants inthe state of São Paulo. However, anuran surveys on this site have not been registered in the literature. As result of anexploratory survey conducted in water bodies in the mesophytic semideciduous forest and surroundings in December2006, we recorded 21 anuran species belonging to five families and 10 genera. These findings contribute to theknowledge of the anuran fauna associated to the mesophytic semideciduous forest of São Paulo state, Brazil.
