Resumen:
The decline of amphibian populations in Argentina is still an open question. As quoted by Lavilla et al. (2000), almost no supporting data exists and this lack of information has of severa1 causes, including the absence of previous studies, the funds for field research and long term monitoring programmes. h spite of these constraints, and Sa& with the necessity to estimate the conservation status of the Argentinean amphibians, a group of specialists analysed the four species of Gymnophiona and the 167 taxa of Anura that inhabit the country. The information presented here is a synthesis of the results of two Workshops for the Categorization o£ the Argentinean Herpetofauna, held in September, 1998 and March, 2000, plus an extremely rich and constant interaction among specialists.
