The objective of the present study was to study the anurans species associated to ponds distributed among the municipalities of Galeras and Sincelejo. In the anuran composition, it was registered fifteen species from six families: Bufonidae (two), Ceratophrydae (one), Hylidae (six), Leptodactylidae (five) and Microhylidae (one). The richness and abundance presented variation for sampling and pond. The anuran fauna for these municipalities shares more than 93% of the species and it’s characterized by species with wide distribution patterns, characteristic that could be related with modifications made to the environmental. The complementarity varied among 7.7-41.6% for the municipality of Sincelejo and 0-46.6% for the municipality of Galeras. Studies like this they constitute to the ponds like habitat with implications to develop in both conservation and management strategies of species.
