Survival and Behavior of Amphibians in a Seasonally Flooded Tropical Forest
Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 4, July 2026.How do tropical amphibians survive seasonal flooding? A three‐year capture–mark–recapture study in Costa Rica revealed species‐specific responses to flood events, with flooding reducing apparent survival in some species while others persisted through behavioral adaptations and use of arboreal refugia.

Beyond Habitat: How Anuran Skin Texture Shapes Plant Dispersal in Neotropical Wetlands
Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT Dispersal is a key process structuring wetland plant communities, yet epizoochory by amphibians remains a little‐known mechanism of passive plant dispersal. This study evaluated the potential role of Neotropical anurans as vectors of plant propagules through external adhesion in coastal wetlands.

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 568-588, July 2026.ABSTRACT Understanding Neotropical megadiversity remains challenging due to fundamental taxonomic issues, including identifying and describing cryptic species and their distribution, and the limited knowledge of key factors driving biological diversification. Such challenges are especially prominent in diverse clades with high levels of cryptic species,

The impacts of biological invasions
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

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.
