Character codification used in the life-history trait analysis of Leptodactylinae

Character	State 0	State 1	State 2	State 3
Reproductive mode	Mode 11	Mode 13	Mode 30	Mode 32
Clutch size	Less than 50	Between 50 and 1,000	More than 1,000	–
Habitat	Open areas	Forest formations	–	–
Tadpole environment	Lotic water bodies	Lentic water bodies	Terrestrial tadpole	–
Nuptial spine	Absence	Presence	–	–
Egg pigmentation	Absence	Presence	–	–

The character codification was used in the ancestral state reconstruction, character mapping and correlation analysis of the six life-history traits for 35 species of Leptodactylinae. Polymorphic data were coded as missing data.
