Larval Adaptation to Salinity Shock in Cane Toads (Rhinella marina) From Coastal French Guiana [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionMany habitats not only differ in mean conditions but also in the degree to which these conditions fluctuate through time. Therefore, local adaptation to both mean abiotic conditions and habitat variability can enhance organismal viability.

Neurology, 2013 Editors' Note: Dr. Egan inquires about the possibility of Tournay phenomenon in Kawasaki and Mayer's "Tadpole pupil." Dr. Charles, in reference to "Disease-modifying drugs for multiple sclerosis in pregnancy: A systematic review," suggests that it might be appropriate to continue glatiramer acetate in women trying to conceive given the lack of evidence

PLoS Biology, 2022 The trade-off between offspring size and number is central to life history strategies. Both the evolutionary gain of parental care or more favorable habitats for offspring development are predicted to result in fewer, larger offspring.

Evaluation of the Effect of Ecological Factors on Cannibalism in Pelophylax bedriagae (Pallas, 1771) (Amphibia: Anura) [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Animal Biosystematics, 2023 Marsh frog, Pelophylax bedriagae tadpoles habituate in temporary wetlands where intraspecific aggression has been observed. In this study, we examined the independent and interactive effects of predator cues, water level and density on head width size ...

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 Abstract We examine the mechanism of moduli stabilization by fluxes in the limit of a large number of moduli. We conjecture that one cannot stabilize all complex-structure moduli in F-theory at a generic point in moduli space (away from singularities) by fluxes that satisfy the bound imposed by the tadpole cancellation condition ...

The Tadpole Pupil: Case Series With Review of the Literature and New Considerations
Frontiers in Neurology, 2019 Tadpole pupil is a rare phenomenon in which segmental spasm of the iris dilator muscle results in a tadpole-shaped pupil. The pupillary distortion is usually unilateral, lasts several minutes, and can recur in clusters.
