Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.By analyzing 277 anuran mitochondrial genomes, this study reconstructs a robust phylogeny for frogs and toads, tracing their origins to the Triassic and major radiations to the Cretaceous‐Neogene. The research identifies 58 distinct gene arrangement patterns, providing a novel evolutionary framework.

An overview of the postcranial osteology of caecilians (Gymnophiona, Lissamphibia)
The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 3, Page 674-699, March 2026.Abstract Caecilians comprise a relatively small (~220 species) group (Gymnophiona) of snake‐like or worm‐like, mostly tropical amphibians. Most adult caecilians are fossorial, although some species may live in aquatic or semi‐aquatic environments, either as larvae or adults.

Journal of Pineal Research, Volume 78, Issue 2, March 2026.ABSTRACT Circadian rhythm alignment depends on environmental light detection via opsins. Pinopsin, originally identified in the pineal organ of birds and later in amphibian pineal complex and eyes, may play a role in this process, though its function has not been genetically tested.

Detecting mass mortality events in wildlife populations
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Reports in the literature of mass mortality events (MMEs) involving diverse animal taxa are increasing. Yet, many likely go unobserved due to imperfect detection and infrequent sampling. MMEs involving small, cryptic species, for instance, can be difficult to detect even during the event, and degradation and scavenging of carcasses can make ...

Microanatomy of Dermal Roofing Bones in the Skull of Pipoid Frogs
Journal of Morphology, Volume 286, Issue 12, December 2025.The cranial bone microanatomy in extant and extinct aquatic pipoids and phylogenetically distant aquatic anurans were analyzed. Micro‐CT data revealed no significant differences in bone thickness and cross‐sectional area among groups, that present similar aquatic lifestyles.

Review of the tetrapod skull–neck boundary: implications for the evolution of the atlas–axis complex
Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2435-2470, December 2025.ABSTRACT This review describes variation in modern and fossil occiput–atlas–axis complex anatomy of total group Tetrapoda with the aim of documenting the range of structural variation throughout their evolutionary history to establish grounds for comparison of the complex between tetrapod clades.
