Effects of prey type on specific dynamic action, growth, and mass conversion efficiencies in the horned frog, Ceratophrys cranwelli

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A, Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2005
To be most energetically profitable, predators should ingest prey with the maximal nutritional benefit while minimizing the cost of processing. Therefore, when determining the quality of prey items, both the cost of processing and nutritional content must be considered.

Sustained force production by the jaw‐adductor muscles of a megalophagous frog, Ceratophrys cranwelli

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, 2023
AbstractMost frogs have weak jaws that play a relatively minor role in tongue‐mediated prey capture. Horned frogs (Ceratophrys spp.), however, follow the projection of a large tongue with a vice‐like grip of their jaws to hold and immobilize prey. Prey include relatively large vertebrates, which they may restrain for minutes to possibly hours.

Comparative study of vitellogenesis in the anuran amphibians Ceratophrys cranwelli (Leptodactilidae) and Bufo arenarum (Bufonidae)

Zygote, 1999
The present study analyses, by transmission electron microscopy, vitellogenesis in two anuran amphibian families: Leptodactilidae (Ceratophrys cranwelli) and Bufonidae (Bufo arenarum). These differ in the type of stimulus that sets off their reproductive period, pluvial changes being the trigger in C. cranwelli and temperature increase in B.

Supervivencia de híbridos de Ceratophrys ornata x Ceratophrys cranwelli (Anura: ceratophryidae)

1989
Para comprobar cuál es el grado de viabilidad de híbridos de Ceratophrys ornata x C. cranwelli se realizaron numerosos cruzamientos entre ambas especies. En los pocos casos en que se logró una metamorfosis (total o parcial) los individuos presentaron diversas malformaciones: mayor número de miembros posteriores, edema generalizado, miembros anteriores ...
