The phylogeny of Dendropsophini (Anura: Hylidae: Hylinae)
Cladistics, 2020 AbstractThe relationships of the hyline tribe Dendropsophini remain poorly studied, with most published analyses dealing with few of the species groups ofDendropsophus. In order to test the monophyly of Dendropsophini, its genera, and the species groups currently recognized inDendropsophus, we performed a total evidence phylogenetic analysis.

Adaptive capacity of alpine fauna in Australia
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Assessment of adaptive capacity can provide insights into the mechanisms behind the vulnerability of some of Australia's most threatened species to climate change, such as the endangered mountain pygmy possum (Burramys parvus). Our results highlight diversity in the adaptive capacity of Australia's alpine animals and suggest that climate change will ...
