Analysis of the Pallial Amygdala in anurans: derivatives and cellular components

open access: yes, 2022
The amygdaloid complex plays a crucial role in socio-emotional conduct, learning, survival, and reproductive behaviors. It is constituted by a set of nuclei presenting a great cellular heterogeneity and embryonic origin diversity (pallial, subpallial ...

Patterns of acoustic phenology in an anuran assemblage of the Yungas Andean forests of Argentina

open access: yesActa Herpetologica, 2023
Breeding seasons in anurans are usually noticed by their advertisement calls, which stand as the main signal emitted by males during their adult life. These calls are species-specific signals with multiple information and can be used to monitor anuran ...

Identification of the taxonomic status of Scinax nebulosus and Scinax constrictus (Scinaxinae, Anura) based on molecular markers [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology, 2020
The validation of many anuran species is based on a strictly descriptive, morphological analysis of a small number of specimens with a limited geographic distribution.

Biophysical Modeling of Water Economy Can Explain Geographic Gradient of Body Size in Anurans

open access: yesAmerican Naturalist, 2019
Geographical gradients of body size express climate-driven constraints on animals, but whether they exist and what causes them in ectotherms remains contentious.

Delineating the anuran axial skeleton

open access: yesThe International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2021
The axial skeleton of the anurans has undergone an evolutionary reduction of its bone elements. This structural plan is strongly preserved throughout the order and would have emerged as a highly specialized anatomical adaptation to its locomotor jumping pattern.

Quantifying the road effect zone: threshold effects of a motorway on anuran populations in Ontario, Canada [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The negative effect of roads on wildlife is recognized as a major contributor to the global biodiversity crisis, with anurans being among the most vulnerable groups overall.

Direct development and Atlantic Forest anurans.

open access: yes, 2023
(A) Phylogenetic distribution of direct development in 464 Atlantic Forest anurans. Families outlined in blue comprise species with biphasic development, while families highlighted in red encompass species with direct development.

Extreme-sized anurans are more prone to climate-driven extinctions

open access: yes, 2023
Understanding species responses to climatic change over extended timescales helps elucidate past and future extinction events. Amphibians are one of the most environmentally sensitive groups and yet showed high resilience to the Cretaceous-Paleogene (KPg)

What do insects, anurans, birds, and mammals have to say about soundscape indices in a tropical savanna

open access: yes, 2018
The application of acoustic indices is incipient and still needs validation before it can reliably characterize soundscapes and monitor rapidly disappearing hot-spot areas as the Brazilian tropical savanna (Cerrado).
