This study aims to identify and report a new anuran host for parasitic infection by Hemolivia sp. in the Neotropical region, providing data on morphology and morphometry of this hemoparasite, and data on infection intensity, prevalence, and abundance. The collection of amphibians was conducted on the banks of two tributaries of the Amazon River. The average intensity of infection was 20,769 parasites/ml (min: 5,000 parasites/ml, max: 60,000 parasites/ml). Significant differences were identified between the width of infected and uninfected erythrocytes. In the Neotropical region, aspects about parasitic diversity and information about parasite-host relationships and their vectors are little clarifying.
