The cophenetic correlation coefficient is Fig. 6. -Limits of distribution of amphibians and reptiles in the Yucatan Peninsula. Each line represents the inferred limits for a single species. northwest species drop out and are not replaced. The result is the dramatic faunal attenuation illustrated in Figure 7. The number of frog species dimin- ishes from a maximum of 22 in southern EI Peten, to a minimum of nine at the northwest corner of the peninsula. A less dramatic decrease in species density oc- curs from east to west in the northern third of the peninsula. Lizards and snakes manifest a different species den- sity pattern.
