Poison Frog Colors Are Honest Signals Of Toxicity, Particularly For Bird Predators [PDF]
, 2012 Antipredator defenses and warning signals typically evolve in concert. However, the extensive variation across taxa in both these components of predator deterrence and the relationship between them are poorly understood.

Animal medical systems from Apis to apes: history, recent advances and future perspectives. [PDF]
Biol Rev Camb Philos SocABSTRACTAnimal medical systems encompass a wide range of behaviours aimed at maintaining or improving health. It has become clear that these behaviours are not limited to animals treating themselves (self‐medication) but also include the treatment of group members, resulting in the adoption of the more inclusive term “animal medication”. Behaviour with

The evolution of coloration and toxicity in the poison frog family (Dendrobatidae) [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2001 The poison frogs (family Dendrobatidae) are terrestrial anuran amphibians displaying a wide range of coloration and toxicity. These frogs generally have been considered to be aposematic, but relatively little research has been carried out to test the predictions of this hypothesis.

Non-native Amphibian Pet Trade via Internet in Poland [PDF]
, 2018 Overharvesting and trade in amphibian populations is one of the causes of their global decline. Online trade not only encourages the exploitation of an increasing number of rare and endangered amphibian species from all over the world but also ...

Skin transcriptional profiles in Oophaga poison frogs [PDF]
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2020 Aposematic organisms advertise their defensive toxins to predators using a variety of warning signals, including bright coloration. While most Neotropical poison frogs (Dendrobatidae) rely on crypsis to avoid predators, Oophaga poison frogs from South ...

The mitochondrial genomes of three species of poison frogs (Anura: Dendrobates)
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2017 We reconstructed nearly complete mitogenomes for three species of poison frogs, Dendrobates auratus, D. leucomelas, and D. tinctorius, from RNAseq data. We recovered the 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes (except tRNA-Val for D.

Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Ecological studies of species pairs showed that biotic interactions promote phenotypic change and eco‐evolutionary feedbacks. However, it is unclear how phenotypes respond to synergistic interactions with multiple taxa.
