Pool choice in a vertical landscape: Tadpole‐rearing site flexibility in phytotelm‐breeding frogs
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Many species of Neotropical frogs have evolved to deposit their tadpoles in small water bodies inside plant structures called phytotelmata. These pools are small enough to exclude large predators but have limited nutrients and high desiccation risk. Here,

Abnormality in the Urostyle of the Common Frog [PDF]
Nature, 1887 ATTENTION has recently been drawn to abnormalities in the vertebral column of Rana. (See Bourne, Quarterly Journal of Microscopical Science, January 1884; Howes, Anatomischer Anzeiger, 1 Jahrgang, 1886, Nr. 11; Lloyd Morgan, NATURE, November 1886.) One form of such abnormality is the addition of a supernumerary (tenth) vertebra.
