Urban–Wild Interface Diversity: A Comprehensive Checklist of Herpetofauna of Guayaquil, Ecuador
Amphibians and reptiles in Guayaquil comprise multiple taxonomic orders and occur across conservation areas, forest remnants, and urban parks, including several endemic species and numerous taxa with type localities in the city. Although most species are globally classified as Least Concern, discrepancies between global and national threat assessments ...

Ordo Anura in Jember University
ome types of Anura have a narrow range of environmental parameters. They can’t survive in environments where natural conditions change dramatically. Therefore, Anura has the potential to be a good environmental bioindicator.

Target Capture Sequencing Provides Insights Into Hybridogenetic Water Frogs
The genomics of European frogs of the genus Pelophylax are intriguing due to their propensity to hybridise, the prevalence of polyploidy, and the unusual hemiclonal hybridogenetic complexes formed in many populations. This study examines the use of target capture sequencing using the Frog Cap bait set to investigate these complex systems.

Decline of Common Toad Populations in Flanders Is Not Linked to Surrounding Landscape
Analysis of long time series show a main decline in population abundances of Common Toads (Bufo bufo) in Flanders. This decline could not be linked to surrounding landscape variables, likely because of the regions fragmented nature and the species' generalist ecology.

Inferences on Frog Responses to Forest Cover Depend on Sampling Method and Reproductive Mode
ABSTRACT Sampling choices can bias assessments of biodiversity responses to habitat loss, compromising conservation strategies in vulnerable ecosystems such as the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. We evaluated the efficiency of three frog sampling methods (active search, plot sampling, and pitfall traps) across Atlantic Forest remnants to estimate species ...

ABSTRACT Introduction and Aim Spatiotemporal and taxonomic sampling bias in biodiversity occurrence data poses critical challenges for robust ecological inference, species distribution models (SDMs), and conservation planning. Despite the exponential growth in global biodiversity records over recent decades, these biases persist.

Cane toads lack physiological enhancements for dispersal at the invasive front in Northern Australia
Summary Many invasive species have evolved behavioural and morphological characteristics that facilitate their dispersal into new areas, but it is unclear how selection on this level of the phenotype filters through to the underlying physiology.

Abstract The trigeminus nerve (cranial nerve V) is a large and significant conduit of sensory information from the face to the brain, with its three branches extending over the head to innervate a wide variety of integumentary sensory receptors, primarily tactile.
