Study on Life History Strategies of Anurans in Tropical Rainforest: Lifespan and Age at Sexual Maturity

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study presents the first comprehensive analysis of lifespan and age at sexual maturity in seven common anuran species from Hainan Island's tropical rainforest, filling a critical gap in tropical amphibian ecology. The results reveal significant interspecific variation in lifespan (5 ~ 9 years) and maturity age (3 ~ 5 years), indicating a “slow ...

Environmental DNA Reveals Major Shifts in Fish and Amphibian Diversity and Distribution in Alpine Lentic Ecosystems of Southwest China, Supporting Improved Conservation and Management

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Alpine lentic ecosystems are naturally fish‐poor or fish‐free, yet they have received numerous non‐native fish introductions globally. Studies have demonstrated that alien fish have negative impacts on aquatic organisms, particularly amphibians, which are highly susceptible to habitat alterations.

Skin Resistance to Dehydration: A Theory‐Informed Trait Gradient in Anurans

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Anurans' sensitivity to hydric stress has driven adaptive changes in multiple traits, potentially displaying geographical clines, as is the case with body size. A longstanding body of research suggests that skin resistance to water loss may also vary geographically in response to water loss.

Skin Microbiome Variation Among Hosts and Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis Infection in Hyla meridionalis and Pelophylax perezi

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 10, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Chytridiomycosis, caused by the fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), is a key driver of global amphibian declines. The amphibian skin microbiome, which may include Bd‐inhibitory bacteria, plays a crucial role in defence against infection, influencing host susceptibility and disease outcome.

Synapsids and sensitivity: Broad survey of tetrapod trigeminal canal morphology supports an evolutionary trend of increasing facial tactile specialization in the mammal lineage

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 4, Page 864-911, April 2026.
Abstract The trigeminus nerve (cranial nerve V) is a large and significant conduit of sensory information from the face to the brain, with its three branches extending over the head to innervate a wide variety of integumentary sensory receptors, primarily tactile.
