Measuring stabilized heart rates in the prairie lizard, a small vertebrate ectotherm
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract The ability to accurately measure heart rates is vital for studying the ecological and evolutionary pressures on animals because cardiovascular regulation is associated with key physiological responses to environmental change. Heart rates, especially in ectotherms, are influenced by multiple factors over both the short and long term, including

Positive effects of nonnative invasive Phragmites australis on larval bullfrogs. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: Nonnative Phragmites australis (common reed) is one of the most intensively researched and managed invasive plant species in the United States, yet as with many invasive species, our ability to predict, control or understand the consequences ...

Antipredatory Strategies of Anurans: An Updated Conceptual Review
Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 9, Page 662-708, September 2026.To unravel the evolutionary dynamics of predator–prey interactions, we propose an updated, three‐tiered classification of anuran antipredatory strategies. By mapping non‐behavioral, individual, and group defenses across five functional phases, this integrative framework introduces the concept of synergetic coupling.

Generation Length: Often Ignored and Sometimes Misunderstood
Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT Traditional mathematical models of population genetics have generally assumed discrete generations, but most species have overlapping generations. It is necessary to estimate generation length with overlapping generations for purposes of comparison with discrete‐generation models.
