A Review of the Scale and Sustainability of the Consumption and Trade of Anuran Species in Africa
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Within Africa, collection and trade of anurans is often recorded as single‐site case studies, making it difficult to accurately understand the scale of use, its livelihood importance, and impact on species. We conducted a systematic review to: compile literature on anuran uses in Africa; identify the species and ecoregions involved; and ...

Histology of the trachea and lung of Siphonops annulatus (Amphibia, Gymnophiona) [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Biologia, 2000 The structure of the trachea and lung of Siphonops annulatus was studied in ten specimens of routinely fed animals. The trachea is constituted mainly by incomplete cartilage rings lined by a respiratory epithelium (ciliated and mucous cells) with variable morphology according to the region observed.

Journal of Pineal Research, Volume 78, Issue 2, March 2026.ABSTRACT Circadian rhythm alignment depends on environmental light detection via opsins. Pinopsin, originally identified in the pineal organ of birds and later in amphibian pineal complex and eyes, may play a role in this process, though its function has not been genetically tested.

Quantifying exposure of amphibian species to heat waves, cold spells, and droughts
Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 5, October 2025.Abstract Globally, amphibians face severe threats, such as climate change and associated extreme events. Our goal was to quantify global amphibian exposure to 3 classes of extreme events: heat waves, cold spells, and droughts. We used the MERRA‐2 extreme climate events data and the standardized precipitation–evapotranspiration index database to ...
