Novel locus-specific primers for major histocompatibility complex class II alleles from glass frogs developed via genome walking

Conservation Genetics Resources, 2012
Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes can be used to study molecular evolution in wild vertebrate populations. Here, we used “genome walking” to develop primers for amplification of the second exon of a single expressed MHC class II locus in a glass frog, Espadarana prosoblepon. We tested the utility of the primers on two Panamian populations of

Effects of Density on Spatial Aggregation and Habitat Associations of the Glass FrogEspadarana (Centrolene) prosoblepon

Journal of Herpetology, 2015
Abstract Social behaviors often are context dependent; behaviors at high density may change or disappear at lower population densities. We analyzed spatial dispersion patterns and habitat associations at high and low population densities of male Espadarana (Centrolene) prosoblepon that declined following the invasion of a pathogenic fungus ...

Community assembly of glass frogs (Centrolenidae) in a Neotropical wet forest: a test of the river zonation hypothesis

Journal of Tropical Ecology, 2018
Abstract:The river zonation hypothesis predicts that abiotic and biotic conditions along riparian gradients drive variation in animal communities. Glass frogs are a diverse group of Neotropical anurans that use riparian habitats exclusively for oviposition and larval development, but little is known about how glass frog communities are distributed ...

An African glass frog: A new Hyperolius species (Anura: Hyperoliidae) from Nyungwe National Park, southern Rwanda

Zootaxa, 2012
A new species of Hyperolius is described from Nyungwe National Park in southern Rwanda. The new species differs fromits congeners by a unique combination of morphological characters, including a light green dorsum and a transparentventral skin resembling glass frogs of the Neotropical family Centrolenidae, blue-coloured bones, reduced toe webbing ...

The genetic mating system in the glass frog Hyalinobatrachium valerioi (Centrolenidae), a species with male parental care

2014
Hyalinobatrachium valerioi ist eine Froschart, die in den Neotropen beheimatet ist. Beobachten kann man sie fast ausschließlich während der Regenzeit entlang von Bächen, wenn Männchen auf Blättern der Ufervegetation rufen um Weibchen anzulocken. Wenn sie dabei erfolgreich waren, werden im Mittel 29 Eier auf die Unterseite eines Blattes abgelegt.
