Ecography, Volume 2025, Issue 11, November 2025.Amphibians exhibit a large diversity in reproductive and developmental strategies, which in turn are linked to their body size, life history and habitat. Here, we explore why terrestrial egg laying frogs are on average smaller than aquatic egg laying ones and whether this pattern also exists in salamanders.

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2025.Abstract Chytridiomycosis is caused by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) and contributes significantly to amphibian declines globally. It has affected more than 500 amphibian species on five continents. In South Asia, the Western Ghats is an amphibian biodiversity hotspot; however, the population status of anurans and their burden of chytridiomycosis

Revista Latinoamericana de Herpetología, 2021 Las cecilias y las serpientes de coral son sin duda unos de los vertebrados más fascinantes. Ambos comparten algunas similitudes evolutivas (convergencias) como respuesta a la necesidad de adaptarse a la vida subterránea, donde la vista es relegada a un segundo plano para favorecer un complejo aparato quimiorreceptor.
