The present study examined the acute and chronic toxicity attributed to commercial formulations of the anthranilic diamide insecticides chlorantraniliprole (CHLO) and cyantraniliprole (CYAN) on the neotropical amphibian species  Rhinella arenarum ,  Rhinella fernandezae  and  Scinax granulatus . The median lethal concentrations obtained after 96 hr exposure (96 hr-LC 50 ) were generally greater than 100 mg/L, except for stage 25  S. Granulatus , which were the most sensitive animals tested with a 96 hr-LC 50  value of 46.78 mg/L. In subchronic exposures of  R. arenarum , the 21day-LC 50  were 151.4 mg/L for CHLO and &gt;160 mg/L for CYAN, the weight gain of the tadpoles during this period not being markedly affected in both cases. Finally, when tadpoles of  R. arenarum  were exposed to CHLO throughout the metamorphic process, an inverted U-shaped non-monotonic dose-response relationship was observed between exposure concentrations and both % of individuals transiting between stage 39 and 42 and the time required to accomplish this. Data obtained raise the hypothesis of an effect of CHLO on the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid (HPT) axis, either directly or through an interaction with the stress-hormone system, as metamorphic progression from stage 39 to S42 occurs under the strict control of thyroid hormones. These observations are important as the anthranilic diamide insecticides are not currently known as endocrine disruptors. Further investigations are needed to clarify the pathways leading to these effects and examine whether environmentally-relevant aquatic concentrations of anthranilic diamides might be impacting amphibian populations in the wild.
