C-banding karyotypes and location of NOR's in the toad species Bufo bufo and Bufo viridis from Yugoslavia [PDF]
The karyotypes, C-banding patterns and positions of nucleolus organizer regions (NORs) of two European species of toads, Bufo bufo and Bufo viridis from seven localities in Yugoslavia were investigated.

Convergent Total Synthesis of 16β‐Hydroxylpseudobufarenogin
We present a novel convergent strategy that integrates Pd/Ag‐promoted Suzuki–Miyaura coupling with Ir‐catalyzed radical‐relay cyclization, enabling the first total synthesis of 16β‐hydroxylpseudobufarenogin. This approach is broadly applicable to the total synthesis of various oxygenated bufadienolides by simply modifying the fragment structures ...

Assessing the Presence, Pattern, and Environmental Correlates of Seasonal Skin Thickening in Anurans
Histological sections, like that of the ventral pectoral skin of Lithobates pipiens, were measured to assess variation in skin thickness throughout the year in three North American anuran species. After correcting for individual body size, we test whether skin thickness changes throughout the year and which factors (environment or life history) explain

Conservation genetics of an island toad: Bufo bufo in Jersey [PDF]
On Jersey (British Channel Islands), common toads often reproduce in small, urban ponds. This atypical breeding strategy has implications for their persistence and they have declined on the island in recent times.

Updated Chorotypes of Terrestrial Vertebrates Shed New Light on Zoogeographical Regions in China
Chorotype represents a fundamental concept for identifying groups of species that share similar distribution patterns. However, the last comprehensive revision of animal chorotypes in China was performed more than a decade ago. Here, we update the chorotype classifications for 1040 species and propose an updated zoogeographical regionalization scheme ...

High altitudes are challenging for the animals that inhabit these environments. The Xizang plateau frog (Nanorana parkeri) survives in high‐altitude environments through a synergistic strategy of metabolic remodeling and protein expression adjustment to optimize energy efficiency and enhance cellular protection.

The Wonder Years: A Demographic Approach to Revisit the Age‐at‐Size Conundrum in Amphibians
We combined repeated body size measurements of marked individuals of unknown age throughout their adult life with growth records of individuals marked as postmetamorphic juveniles and recaptured years later as sexually mature adults, focusing on 10 amphibian species in central Spain.
