Simultaneous Detection of Missing Amphibians and Their Fungal Pathogen in a Biodiversity Hotspot Using eDNA

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 19, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Since the 1970s, striking amphibian declines in population abundances and presumed extinctions have been recorded globally. The chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) is one of the key drivers of these declines. To investigate the potential role of Bd in the decline of Brazil's amphibians, we first used eDNA metabarcoding to survey

Amphibians and Reptiles of Ethiopia—Biogeography, Conservation Priority Areas, and Potentials for “One Plan Approach” Conservation Measures 埃塞俄比亚的两栖爬行动物——生物地理学、保育优先区及“一体化方案”保育措施的潜力

Integrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 442-463, September 2025.
In this study, we analyze the conservation status of Ethiopia's amphibian and reptile diversity in terms of coverage with protected areas and global representation in conservation breeding facilities. We identify conservation gaps and suggest priorities for improvement.
