From Gondwana to the Yellow Sea, evolutionary diversifications of true toads Bufo sp. in the Eastern Palearctic and a revisit of species boundaries for Asian lineages

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Taxa with vast distribution ranges often display unresolved phylogeographic structures and unclear taxonomic boundaries resulting in hidden diversity.

Bufonid herpesvirus 1 (BfHV1) associated dermatitis and mortality in free ranging common toads (Bufo bufo) in Switzerland [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Here we report the discovery and partial characterization of a novel herpesvirus tentatively named Bufonid herpesvirus 1 (BfHV1) from severe dermatitis in free ranging common toads (Bufo bufo) in Switzerland.

Comparison of the ecological niche of two closely related toads (Bufo bufo and Bufo verrucosissimus) [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Biology, 2023
Abstract Understanding climatic variables to determine the ecological niche is crucial to explaining species distributions and revealing how sister species coexist within a geographic area. Here, we used ecological niche modeling to determine the ecological niche patterns of two toad species in Türkiye: Bufo bufo and Bufo verrucosissimus.

How complex is the Bufo bufo species group? [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2013
Species delineation remains one of the most challenging tasks in the study of biodiversity, mostly owing to the application of different species concepts, which results in contrasting taxonomic arrangements.

The environmental physiology of Bufo bufo L. and Bufo calamita Laur. tadpoles. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Using spawn collected from the north Merseyside sand dune system, the effects of temperature on growth, development, metabolism and metamorphosis in B. bufo and B. calamita tadpoles were investigated, together with a limited study on the effects of L-thyroxine.

An Autoradiographic Study of Cell Kinetics in Epidermis of the Toad Bufo bufo bufo (L) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1982
Under normal conditions, the toad Bufo bufo bufo molts about once a week. It was considered of interest to study whether the rhythmic pattern of cell loss through shedding of a stratum corneum is correlated with a rhythmic production of cells in stratum germinativum.

Decline of Common Toad Populations in Flanders Is Not Linked to Surrounding Landscape. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
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.

Pesticide exposure affects reproductive capacity of common toads (Bufo bufo) in a viticultural landscape

open access: yesEcotoxicology, 2021
Amphibian populations are declining worldwide at alarming rates. Among the large variety of contributing stressors, chemical pollutants like pesticides have been identified as a major factor for this decline.

Mitochondrial Costs of Being Hot: Effects of Acute Thermal Change on Liver Bioenergetics in Toads (Bufo bufo)

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Global climatic warming is predicted to drive extreme thermal events, especially in temperate terrestrial environments. Hence, describing how physiological parameters are affected by acute temperature changes would allow us to understand the energy ...

Taxonomic assessment and distribution of common toads (Bufo bufo and B. verrucosissimus) in Turkey based on morphological and molecular data

open access: yesAmphibia-Reptilia, 2020
The Bufo bufo species group includes four species distributed in the western Palearctic: B. bufo, B. eichwaldii, B. spinosus and B. verrucosissimus. Both B. bufo and B.
