Acoustic orientation in the great crested newt (Triturus cristatus) [PDF]

, 2016
We carried out laboratory experiments to determine whether orientation during migration in the great crested newt (Triturus cristatus) is influenced by acoustic information.

Effects of complex soundscapes on the occurrence of Anaxipha pallidula in isolated green spaces in Tokyo

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.

The behavioral response of larval amphibians (Ranidae) to threats from predators and parasites. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Organisms are exposed to strong selective pressures from several sources, including predators and pathogens. Response to such interacting selective pressures may vary among species that differ in life history and ecology in predictable ways.

Characterization of a bacteriocin produced by enterococcus gallinarum CRL 1826 Isolated from captive bullfrog: evaluation of its mode of action against Listeria monocytogenes and gram-negatives [PDF]

, 2015
Enterococcus gallinarum CRL 1826 isolated from an American bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) skin inhibits the growth of Citrobacter freundii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa (bullfrog pathogens) and Listeria monocytogenes by a synergistic effect between organic

Many roads to reservoirs? How susceptibility and shedding shape host competence in amphibians

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Host competence—the ability to acquire, harbour and transmit infections—drives pathogen spread and persistence in multi‐host communities. Evaluating species‐specific competence is critical for predicting transmission, particularly for generalist fungal pathogens like ...

New insights in gill/buccal rhythm spiking activity and CO2 sensitivity in pre- and post-metamorphic tadpoles (Pelophylax ridibundus)

, 2013
Central CO2chemosensitivity is crucial for all air-breathing vertebrates and raises the question of itsrole in ventilatory rhythmogenesis. In this study, neurograms of ventilatory motor outputs recorded infacial nerve of premetamorphic and ...

American bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) invasion in California

, 2020
Invasive species have far-reaching ecological and economic impacts. The American bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) has spread globally through anthropogenic activity and has been named one of the world's worst invasive species. Bullfrogs have especially impacted native amphibians in California through predation, competition, and disease. Bullfrogs are

Morphological characterization of the gonads of bullfrog tadpoles (Lithobates catesbeianus) [PDF]

Journal of Morphological Sciences, 2015
Abstract Introduction: This work describes various aspects of early gonadal development of female and male in pre-metamorphic tadpoles (Lithobates catesbeianus) at Gosner stage 25. Materials and Methods: Ovaries and testicles were prepared for routine light microscopy for morphological study and for acridine orange technique fluroescent ...
