Anuran swingers: misdirected mating attempts occurred early during anuran diversification
Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2023 Abstract Promiscuity, explosive breeding and male-biased operational sex-ratios can affect the strength of male selectivity and may play major roles in the expression of misdirected matings (with conspecific males, other species, corpses or objects) in anuran amphibians.

Brain regeneration in anuran amphibians [PDF]
Development, Growth & Differentiation, 2007 Urodele amphibians are highly regenerative animals. After partial removal of the brain in urodeles, ependymal cells around the wound surface proliferate, differentiate into neurons and glias and finally regenerate the lost tissue. In contrast to urodeles, this type of brain regeneration is restricted only to the larval stages in anuran amphibians ...

Basidioboliasis in Anurans in Florida [PDF]
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2002 Members of the genus Basidiobolus, a saprophytic fungus, have been associated with the digestive tracts of a wide variety of amphibians and reptiles. To elucidate the relationship of Basidiobolus sp. with amphibians in central Florida (USA), we document the occurrence of the fungus in the digestive tracts of Bufo terrestris, Buffo quercicus, Hyla ...

The relationship between pond habitat depth and functional tadpole diversity in an agricultural landscape [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2015 One of the most important goals of biodiversity studies is to identify which characteristics of local habitats act as filters that determine the diversity of functional traits along environmental gradients. In this study, we investigated the relationship

Comparison of Channels: Criteria for Domination by a Symmetric Channel
, 2018 This paper studies the basic question of whether a given channel $V$ can be dominated (in the precise sense of being more noisy) by a $q$-ary symmetric channel.

Meiotic behavior of two polyploid species of genus Pleurodema (Anura: Leiuperidae) from central Argentina [PDF]
, 2014 Polyploidy is an important evolutionary force but rare in vertebrates. However, in anurans, the genus Pleurodema has polyploid species, two of them tetraploid and one octoploid.

Sexual size dimorphism in anurans [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2002 Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain the direction and extent of sexual size dimorphism in anurans (in which males are usually smaller than females) as a result of sexual selection. Here, we present an analysis to test the hypothesis that sexual dimorphism in anurans is largely a function of differences between the sexes in life-history ...

Reproductive activity of anurans in a dominant agricultural landscape from central-eastern Argentina
Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2013 Agriculture can modify natural systems through habitat loss and fragmentation, as well as through the effect of agrochemicals on biological traits such as reproduction.
