Prevalence of Ranavirus Infection in Three Anuran Species across South Korea
To cope with amphibian die-offs caused by ranavirus, it is important to know the underlying ranavirus prevalence in a region. We studied the ranavirus prevalence in tadpoles of two native and one introduced anuran species inhabiting agricultural and ...

Do Lithobates catesbeianus tadpoles acclimatise to sub-lethal copper?
The aim of this work was to study the acute effects of short-term exposure (96 hours) to sub-lethal concentrations of copper (2 and 3 mg L−1) on ecotoxicological stress biomarkers in the aquatic stages of Lithobates catesbeianus (syn. Rana catesbeiana) larvae. To this end, the effects of copper on brain acetylcholinesterase, liver and gill catalase and

Sexually dimorphic skin glands in the invasive species Lithobates catesbeianus (Anura: Ranidae)
Abstract Males of most amphibian species possess specialized cutaneous glands, known as sexually dimorphic skin glands (SDSGs). SDSGs are usually clustered in specific body regions and are externally visible, but in some cases, external differences between males and females can be slight or absent, and the ...

Feeds formulated with alternative ingredients for bullfrog tadpoles (Lithobates catesbeianus)
Several foods are available for the formulation of rations in Brazil; however, the effectiveness of a few of these foods has been evaluated in diets for bullfrog tadpoles (Lithobates catesbeianus). This study aimed to evaluate alternative foods (worm meal, peeled banana, peeled pumpkin, and peeled avocado) with different levels of crude protein and ...

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 ...

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.
