BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2015 BackgroundHybridization between incipient species is expected to become progressively limited as their genetic divergence increases and reproductive isolation proceeds. Amphibian radiations and their secondary contact zones are useful models to infer the

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.As human‐modified landscape and climate changes proliferate, maintaining biodiversity and understanding the function and quality of available habitat is imperative. As anurans (frogs/toads) such as Pseudacris crucifer, can be an indicator species of habitat quality and ecosystem productivity, studying the anuran community in a mixed‐land use region ...

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Urban green spaces experience a mix of natural and anthropogenic noises, which could disrupt the vocal communication of several species. This study investigated how such complex soundscapes affect the occurrence of Anaxipha pallidula, which communicates through calls, focusing on both sound level and quality.

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The nested subset pattern (nestedness) has been widely used to explain species distributions in island and fragmented systems. Mountain sky islands serve as critical natural laboratories for understanding the evolutionary consequences of geographic isolation and climate

A Reappraisal of Mating Call Differentiation in Hyla cadaverina (=Hyla californiae) and Hyla regilla [PDF]
Evolution, 1971 Ball and Jameson (1966) in their study of reproductive isolation between the broadly sympatric western North American tree frogs, Hyla cadaverina (as H. californiae; see Duellman, 1968) and H. regilla, paid particular attention to differences in mating call structure, which they presumed to be the most important of the possible premating isolating ...

Child &Family Social Work, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Previous studies suggest that emotional parentification contributes to internalised problems in children and adolescents and may be one of the key mechanisms linking adverse family experiences to adolescent internalised problems. Qualitative studies indicate that emotional parentification may emerge as a coping mechanism in response to ...
