Population Regulation of Frogs and Lizards in a Lowland Wet Neotropical Forest: Integrating Alternative Hypotheses [PDF]
Populations can be regulated in space and time from the “bottom-up” by resources (e.g., food), from the “top-down” by predation, or from parallel factors, such as interactions with conspecifics or heterospecifics. Amphibians and reptiles are species rich

Delayed escape responses of male Basiliscus plumifrons (Squamata: Corytophanidae) during peak activity [PDF]
Delayed escape responses of male Basiliscus plumifrons (Squamata: Corytophanidae) during peak activity. Many animals must balance their time spent active in a habitat against their perceived risk of predation.

Predation is one of the major selective agents influencing evolution of color patterns. Cryptic color patterns decrease detection probability by predators, but their concealing function depends on the background against which patterns are seen; therefore,

Recovery of Amphibian and Reptile Communities During Tropical Secondary Forest Succession [PDF]
The extensive clearing and modification of natural systems from anthropogenic activities is a pressing global concern. Forest habitats and animal communities within forests are among the most highly impacted, globally.

Role of Reptile-Invertebrate Interactions in Enigmatic Reptile Declines [PDF]
Reptile populations are declining world-wide and the mechanisms behind many of these declines remain enigmatic. Food web interactions (i.e., reduced prey availability or increased predation) have been implicated behind some reptile declines.
