Abstract: Responsable for the short course "The Integrative Taxonomy and the Classification of Neotropical Anurans". "Integrative Taxonomy", "Total Evidence" or a "well done taxonomy" are works that show the merit of all types of data for taxonomic studies of biodiversity. One data can be usefull where another type of data proves inefficient to diagnose the entities. In addition, a broad and multidisciplinary database should be used to bring confidense for the study.
