A Review of the Scale and Sustainability of the Consumption and Trade of Anuran Species in Africa
ABSTRACT Within Africa, collection and trade of anurans is often recorded as single‐site case studies, making it difficult to accurately understand the scale of use, its livelihood importance, and impact on species. We conducted a systematic review to: compile literature on anuran uses in Africa; identify the species and ecoregions involved; and ...

Gonadal Development in Larvae of the Paedomorphic Ambystoma mexicanum (Amphibia: Urodela)
This research analyzes the gonads of Ambystoma mexicanum larvae of both sexes, revealing significant changes such as the onset of vitellogenesis in females at 9 months of age and oocytes with signs of maturity at 12 months. In males, gonadal maturity occurs earlier, with a notable cephalocaudal and lateromedial testicular regionalization, and ...
