Amphibian Strategies Against Attacks by Flies: Host‐Specificity and Threats

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Species interactions between Diptera flies and amphibians play a significant role in tropical ecosystems, but their ecology and evolution remain understudied. This review explores the costs flies impose on amphibians, such as pathogen transmission and disruption of communication systems, and highlights the evolutionary strategies employed by both ...

Metabolomics-based Analysis of the Effects of a Compound Phosphorus-free Water-retaining Agent on the Quality of Bullfrog Meat in Frozen Storage

Shipin gongye ke-ji
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the compound phosphorus-free water-retaining agent on the quality of bullfrog meat during frozen storage with a focus on addressing protein denaturation and reduced water-holding capacity.

Timing of detachment faulting in the Bullfrog Hills and Bare Mountain area, southwest Nevada: Inferences from 40Ar/39Ar, K-Ar, U-Pb and fission track thermochronology [PDF]

, 1997
Crustal extension in the Bullfrog Hills and Bare Mountain area of southwest Nevada is associated with movement along a regional detachment fault. Normal faulting in the upper plate and rapid cooling (denudation) of the lower plate were coeval with ...

Monitoring the Prevalence and Distribution of Chytrid Fungus (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis) in the Kihansi Spray Toad (Nectophrynoides asperginis) Population in the Kihansi Gorge Spray Wetlands, Tanzania

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
How to manage the continued impact of Chytrid fungus on Kihansi Spray Toad population in the wild. ABSTRACT Chytridiomycosis, caused by the fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), is fatal to some amphibian species, whereas others can carry the pathogen without developing disease.

Persistence of Environmental DNA in Freshwater Ecosystems [PDF]

, 2011
International audienceThe precise knowledge of species distribution is a key step in conservation biology. However, species detection can be extremely difficult in many environments, specific life stages and in populations at very low density. The aim of

Evaluating the Use of Environmental DNA as a Method to Determine Occupancy and Distribution of Coeur d'Alene Salamanders in Montana

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
The purpose of this project was to evaluate the efficacy of eDNA sampling to determine occupancy of Coeur d'Alene salamanders, an “imperiled” species in Montana. Previous methods used to identify occupied sites were haphazard with no measure of detection probability. Due to the unique habitat used by these salamanders (seeps and waterfall spray zones),

The “regime shift extinctions” hypothesis and mass extinction of waterbirds in Hawaiʻi

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Studies of biodiversity loss commonly imply that species extinctions occurred as a direct result of initial human arrival and thus are attributable to stewardship failures of Indigenous Peoples. However, recent studies have suggested this assumption is not supported by the evidence, prompting a global reevaluation of existing assumptions.

Amphibian chytridiomycosis : a review with focus on fungus-host interactions [PDF]

, 2015
Amphibian declines and extinctions are emblematic for the current sixth mass extinction event. Infectious drivers of these declines include the recently emerged fungal pathogens Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis and Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans ...
