Artificial Shelters as a Monitoring and Conservation Tool for Terrestrial Breeding Frogs
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.Artificial concrete and wooden shelters were tested as low‐impact tools for monitoring a cryptic terrestrial‐breeding frog, Austrochaperina robusta, in the Australian Wet Tropics. Frogs overwhelmingly preferred concrete shelters, which provided stronger thermal buffering, supported higher occupancy across seasons, and were the only shelters used for ...

Environmental watering elevates chytrid infection probability in frogs
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Prolonged drought associated with climate change is a global threat to amphibians. Environmental watering could limit declines but may worsen the amphibian disease chytridiomycosis which thrives in wet conditions. We aimed to discover how environmental water and chytrid interact to influence the survival of the endangered frog Pseudophryne ...

Quantifying phenotypic plasticity at multiple levels—A comment on Gómez et al.
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 556-559, March 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Gómez et al. (2025) called for consistency in the approaches to quantifying plastic responses, concluding that plasticity studies need to track genotypes (or proxies) to be meaningful.

Many roads to reservoirs? How susceptibility and shedding shape host competence in amphibians
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 585-598, March 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Host competence—the ability to acquire, harbour and transmit infections—drives pathogen spread and persistence in multi‐host communities. Evaluating species‐specific competence is critical for predicting transmission, particularly for generalist fungal pathogens like ...

The Influence of Climate and Livestock Grazing on Two Species of Burrowing Desert Frogs
Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Frogs are one of the most vulnerable groups of vertebrates globally, occupying a range of environments including arid deserts. They are threatened by many interacting factors, including climate change and livestock grazing. In this study, we present the first long‐term research (over 30 years) on two arid‐dwelling frogs in Australia, the ...
