Oviposition and father presence reduce clutch cannibalism by female poison frogs
Frontiers in Zoology, 2019 Background The consumption of conspecific young by adult individuals is a common phenomenon across various animal taxa. Possible adaptive benefits of such behaviour include the acquisition of nutrients, decreased competition for one’s own offspring, and ...

The Constructive Neutral Evolution of Behaviour
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.We explain how constructive neutral evolution (CNE) can lead to the evolution of nonfunctional behavioural complexity, highlighting a mechanism that is unknown to behavioural ecologists despite being frequently considered by molecular biologists. We summarise indirect evidence that suggests behavioural CNE has occurred and outline how the hypothesis ...

Hide and Seek: Species Detectability in a Biodiversity Hotspot Increased by Environmental DNA
Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.We demonstrated through Bayesian modeling that eDNA metabarcoding offers equivalent or higher detectability than traditional field inventory techniques for anuran species in a biodiversity hotspot. The number of recorded species was also higher in seven out of ten sampled streams.

Generation length of the world's amphibians and reptiles
Ecography, Volume 2025, Issue 7, July 2025.Variation in life histories influences demographic processes, from adaptive changes to population declines leading to extinction. Among life history traits, generation length offers a critical feature to forecast species' demographic trajectories such as population declines (widely used by the IUCN Red List) and adaptability to environmental change ...

Potential effects of climate change on the threatened Malagasy poison frogs: A multispecies approach
Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2025.Abstract Climate change is exposing ecosystems to novel conditions, and understanding its potential effects on species distributions is crucial. Those effects can significantly affect species with narrow environmental requirements inhabiting closed systems where dispersal is limited.
