The Role of Environmental Factors on Visual Communication in Neotropical Anurans
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Visual signals are a widespread behavioural attribute of communication among vertebrates, often employed during intrasexual competition or mate attraction, ultimately influencing reproductive success. However, the environmental factors driving visual signal evolution remain poorly understood.

The tadpole of Adelphobates galactonotus (Steindachner, 1864) (Amphibia, Anura, Dendrobatidae)
Zootaxa, 2018 The systematics of the dart-poison frogs, family Dendrobatidae, experienced several taxonomic rearrangements over time (e.g., Grant et al. 2006, 2017; Brown et al. 2011). Currently, this family comprises 194 described species organized in three sub-families and 15 genera (Frost 2018). Among them, the genus Adelphobates Grant, Frost, Caldwell, Gagliardo,

Alkaloid defenses of co-mimics in a putative Müllerian mimetic radiation [PDF]
, 2014 Background Polytypism in aposematic species is unlikely according to theory, but commonly seen in nature. Ranitomeya imitator is a poison frog species exhibiting polytypic mimicry of three congeneric model species (R. fantastica, R.

Dietary source for skin alkaloids of Dendrobatid poison frogs [PDF]
, 2010 Žabe porodice Dendrobatidae sadrže otrovne alkaloide u kožnim žlijezdama. Dugo se smatralo da ih same sintetiziraju, no istraživanjem je dokazano kako su alkaloidi ipak porijeklom od malih člankonožaca kojima se hrane.

Evolutionarily stable defence and signalling of that defence [PDF]
, 2006 We examine the evolution and maintenance of defence and conspicuousness in prey species using a game theoretic model. In contrast to previous works, predators can raise as well as lower their attack probabilities as a consequence of encountering ...
