Ecological contributions to body shape evolution in salamanders of the genus Eurycea (Plethodontidae).

PLoS ONE, 2019
BackgroundBody shape can be both a consequence and cause of a species' evolution and ecology. There are many examples of phenotypes associated with specific ecological niches, likely as a result of specific selective regimes. A classic example of this is

Shadowboxing Salamanders: Defensive Behavior in Two Amazonian Bolitoglossa Species (Amphibia: Plethodontidae)

Acta Herpetologica
Salamanders employ diverse anti-predator strategies, yet many tropical species remain poorly documented. We describe a previously unreported defensive display in two Amazonian plethodontids, Bolitoglossa equatoriana and B. altamazonica. During nocturnal

Uncovering cryptic diversity of desmognathine salamanders in the Cumberland Plateau utilizing molecular genetic techniques [PDF]

, 2016
Cryptic species are difficult to identify morphologically; therefore, their distributions are often poorly understood. However, species distributions are critical for evaluating biodiversity in ecology and biodiversity.
