Description of Morphological Abnormalities in Rhinella arenarum (ANURA: BUFONIDAE)

open access: yesJournal of Morphological Sciences, 2018
AbstractThe rise of anatomical abnormalities in anurans over recent years has increased the interest in producing more and better information about the abnormalities observed in specimens within natural environments that are currently being altered. The aim of this work was to identify and describe la osseous abnormalities found in Rhinella arenarum ...

Differential toxicity and uptake of Diazinon on embryo-larval development of Rhinella arenarum

open access: yesChemosphere, 2014
Diazinon, an anti-cholinesterase organophosphate, is an extensively used pesticide. The main objective of this work was to assess the lethal and sublethal effects of Diazinon and its comparison with the uptake by embryos and larvae of the common South American toad Rhinella arenarum by means of standardized bioassays during acute (96 h), short-term ...

Incentive or habit learning in amphibians?

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Toads (Rhinella arenarum) received training with a novel incentive procedure involving access to solutions of different NaCl concentrations. In Experiment 1, instrumental behavior and weight variation data confirmed that such solutions yield incentive ...

Activation of spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) at fertilization in Rhinella arenarum eggs

open access: yesThe International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2014
Recently, we have provided evidence for the involvement of a cytosolic tyrosine-phosphorylatable 70 kDa oocyte protein in Rhinella arenarum (Anura: Bufonidae) fertilization. The aim of the present work was to characterize its phosphorylation, determine the identity of this protein and establish its biological role during the fertilization process ...

Mechanism of hCG-induced spermiation in the toad Rhinella arenarum (Amphibia, Anura)

open access: yesGeneral and Comparative Endocrinology, 2010
In Rhinella arenarum spermiation occurs as a consequence of LH/FSH increase during the amplexus or by a single dose of hCG, among other gonadotropins. The present study employs an in vitro system to study the mechanism of action of hCG in the spermiation of R. arenarum.

Biochemical and Biological Profile of Parotoid Secretion of the Amazonian Rhinella marina (Anura: Bufonidae)

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Skin secretions of frogs have a high chemical complexity. They have diverse types of biomolecules, such as proteins, peptides, biogenic amines, and alkaloids. These compounds protect amphibians’ skin against growth of bacteria, fungi, and protozoa and participate in defense system against attack from predators.

Sex and weaponry: The distribution of toxin‐storage glands on the bodies of male and female cane toads (Rhinella marina)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 7, Issue 21, Page 8950-8957, November 2017., 2017
Male and female cane toads differ in the distribution of toxin‐containing glands in different areas of the body. That divergence may reflect ecological and behavioral differences that have acted as selective forces on toxin‐gland location. Abstract The parotoid macroglands of bufonid anurans store (and can expel) large volumes of toxic secretions and ...
