Riparian buffers provide refugia during secondary forest succession

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 28, Issue 9, Page 2008-2019, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim Secondary forests regenerating from human disturbance are increasingly becoming a predominant forest type in many regions, and they play a significant role in forest community dynamics. Understanding the factors that underlie the variation in species responses during secondary succession is important for understanding community assembly ...

An unexpected record of Teratohyla midas (Lynch and Duellman, 1973) for Brazil reveals the presence of glassfrogs in the Brazilian northern lowlands (Anura: Centrolenidae) [PDF]

open access: yesCheck List, 2013
We reported a new record of Teratohyla midas for Northeast Brazil and extending its distribution in 1,200km east from the nearest reported area. Additionally we constructed a distribution map based on literature records.

Elevational and local climate variability predicts thermal breadth of mountain tropical tadpoles

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2022, Issue 5, May 2022., 2022
The climate variability hypothesis posits that increased environmental thermal variation should select for thermal generalists, while stable environments should favor thermal specialists. This hypothesis has been tested on large spatial scales, such as latitude and elevation, but less so on smaller scales reflective of the experienced microclimate ...

Centrolenidae Taylor 1951

open access: yes, 2022
Family Centrolenidae Taylor, 1951 Vitreorana ritae (Lutz, 1952) is currently a senior synonym of V. oyampiensis (Lescure, 1975) (Cisneros- Heredita 2013). Despite some authors state that this synonymy remains dubious due to the lack of acoustic and molecular data from the type locality (headwaters of the Caiwama River, Amazonas, Colombia) (Fouquet et ...

Low reproductive skew despite high male-biased operational sex ratio in a glass frog with paternal care [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background Reproductive skew, the uneven distribution of reproductive success among individuals, is a common feature of many animal populations. Several scenarios have been proposed to favour either high or low levels of reproductive skew.

A new family of diverse skin peptides from the microhylid frog genus phrynomantis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
A wide range of frogs produce skin poisons composed of bioactive peptides for defence against pathogens, parasites and predators. While several frog families have been thoroughly screened for skin-secreted peptides, others, like the Microhylidae, have ...
