Integrating alpha, beta, and phylogenetic diversity to understand anuran fauna along environmental gradients of tropical forests in western Ecuador

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 9, Issue 19, Page 11040-11052, October 2019., 2019
Environmental factors affecting actual distribution can help to understanding biological interactions, future direction of populations, and potential extinction risk of species. In this work, we studied the effect of geographical and environmental factors on species turnover and phylogenetic structure of amphibian anurans in tropical forests of western

Contrasting patterns of Andean diversification among three diverse clades of Neotropical clearwing butterflies

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 8, Issue 8, Page 3965-3982, April 2018., 2018
We tested and discussed different scenarios of diversification involving the Andes on three subtribes belonging to the Neotropical Ithomiini butterflies. To do so, we generated the first phylogeny of the most diverse subtribe of Ithomiini butterflies, the Dircennina (101 species). In the three subtribes, Central Andean lineages are old and diversifying

Major knowledge shortfalls for Colombian Amazonian anurans: Implications for conservation

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 49, Issue 8, August 2024.
Abstract The Amazon boasts the highest anuran species diversity in the world. The Colombian Amazon has the highest rates of illegal deforestation, leading to accelerated species loss. The objective of this review was to identify knowledge shortfalls in anuran research to effectively address conservation efforts.

Causes of embryonic mortality in Espadarana prosoblepon (Anura: Centrolenidae) from Costa Rica

open access: yesPhyllomedusa: Journal of Herpetology, 2020
Causes of embryonic mortality in Espadarana prosoblepon (Anura: Centrolenidae) from Costa Rica. Members of the family Centrolenidae—commonly known as “glass frogs”—exhibit arboreal egg-laying behavior, depositing their clutches on riparian vegetation ...

Mechanisms, costs, and carry‐over effects of cannibal‐induced developmental plasticity in invasive cane toads

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2024.
Hatchlings of invasive cane toads in Australia respond to risk of cannibalism by conspecific tadpoles by accelerating development. This occurs as a trade‐off with growth. The resulting size reduction predicts some, but not all, future fitness costs. Abstract Inducible defences can improve survival in variable environments by allowing individuals to ...
