The Wonder Years: A Demographic Approach to Revisit the Age‐at‐Size Conundrum in Amphibians
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We combined repeated body size measurements of marked individuals of unknown age throughout their adult life with growth records of individuals marked as postmetamorphic juveniles and recaptured years later as sexually mature adults, focusing on 10 amphibian species in central Spain.

Longevity and survival curves of Rhinella icterica (Anura, Bufonidae) under laboratory conditions
Brazilian Journal of BiologyLife tables and survival curves of tadpoles from Rhinella icterica species were studied in the laboratory, under abiotic conditions controlled by a purification filter, a timer and a chiller. The survival curve for larval stage confirms a great mortality

Geographical Variation in Thermal Adaptation of the Asiatic Toad (Bufo gargarizans)
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Northern and southern populations of Bufo gargarizans exhibit coordinated divergence in thermal preference, resting metabolic rate, and TRPM4 temperature sensitivity along a climatic gradient. ABSTRACT Thermal adaptation in animals can manifest in multiple dimensions, yet few studies have integrated behavioral, physiological, and molecular perspectives

The Tadpoles of Hyla rufitela (Anura: Hylidae)
Revista de Biología Tropical, 2005 The validity of the published description of Hyla rufitela is questioned because the origin of the described tadpoles does not correspond to the distribution of this species.

Scientists’ warning on the global destruction of rock outcrop ecosystems
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Rock outcrops are geological formations that harbor a highly specialized biota adapted to harsh environmental conditions that differ from their surrounding landscapes. They are globally distributed, especially in old, highly weathered landscapes, and can function as habitat islands containing high levels of endemism and distinct evolutionary ...

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Adaptive management of threatened species relies on having ex ante estimates of species’ responses to different interventions. Structured expert elicitation is often used to generate these estimates, but comparisons of these expert‐predicted outcomes with observed results are rare.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1967 SummaryMammalian prolactin inhibits thyroxin-induced resorption of the tail in Rana catesbeiana tadpoles. Mammalian growth hormone does not show this effect. The possible importance of prolactin as a larval growth hormone in amphibians is emphasized.

Cytopathology, EarlyView.This case describes the initial detection of cervical small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma on conventional endometrial and cervicovaginal liquid‐based cytology. Given its rarity and high aggressiveness, early recognition and rapid, intensive treatment are crucial for improving patient outcomes.
