Beyond Habitat: How Anuran Skin Texture Shapes Plant Dispersal in Neotropical Wetlands
Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT Dispersal is a key process structuring wetland plant communities, yet epizoochory by amphibians remains a little‐known mechanism of passive plant dispersal. This study evaluated the potential role of Neotropical anurans as vectors of plant propagules through external adhesion in coastal wetlands.

How vulnerable are amphibians to climate change? A mechanistic perspective
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1550-1560, June 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Amphibians are frequently identified as highly vulnerable to climate change, yet the mechanisms driving this sensitivity remain uncertain. Approaches that explicitly link physiological mechanisms to environmental variation provide powerful tools for forecasting climate ...

Skin Resistance to Dehydration: A Theory‐Informed Trait Gradient in Anurans
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Anurans' sensitivity to hydric stress has driven adaptive changes in multiple traits, potentially displaying geographical clines, as is the case with body size. A longstanding body of research suggests that skin resistance to water loss may also vary geographically in response to water loss.

Urban–Wild Interface Diversity: A Comprehensive Checklist of Herpetofauna of Guayaquil, Ecuador
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.Amphibians and reptiles in Guayaquil comprise multiple taxonomic orders and occur across conservation areas, forest remnants, and urban parks, including several endemic species and numerous taxa with type localities in the city. Although most species are globally classified as Least Concern, discrepancies between global and national threat assessments ...

Food niche overlap between two sympatric leaf-litter frog species from Central Amazonia
Zoologia (Curitiba), 2012 We studied the feeding habits and similarities in the diet of two sympatric and syntopic Amazonian frog species, Anomaloglossus stepheni (Aromobatidae) and Leptodactylus andreae (Leptodactylidae) in a forested area in Central Amazonia. The breadth of the
