Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023 This study investigated the impact of roads and landscape composition on the functional diversity of snakes in the Orinoco region of Colombia. The results suggest that landscape composition affects the functional diversity of both road‐killed snakes and those inhabiting the adjacent vegetation within an area of influence ranging from 250 to 2000 m. The

Predator response to the coloured eyespots and defensive posture of Colombian four‐eyed frogs
Journal of Evolutionary Biology, Volume 36, Issue 7, Page 1040-1049, July 2023., 2023 Using stationary artificial frogs exposed to wild predators, we tested whether the eyespot/colour markings and defensive posture present in the putative deimatic display of Colombian four‐eyed frogs, and their combination, provide protection from predation without a sudden change in appearance.
