Rheotactic Responses in Bufo bufo Tadpoles—Insights Into Adaptation to Lotic Environment [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionCurrent flow is an important stimulus for amphibian larvae. The common toad (Bufo bufo ) typically breeds in stagnant waters or, less commonly, in slow‐flowing rivers, where tadpoles further develop. This study is the first investigation of B.

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

Tadpoles of four sympatric megophryinid frogs (Anura, Megophryidae, Megophryinae) from Mangshan in southern China [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2023 Sympatric distribution and potentially long larval development time make the assignment of tadpoles confusing in Asian-horned frogs of the subfamily Megophryinae.

Growing up in a new world: trait divergence between rural, urban, and invasive populations of an amphibian urban invader [PDF]
NeoBiota, 2021 Cities are focal points of introduction for invasive species. Urban evolution might facilitate the success of invasive species in recipient urban habitats.

Consumptive and nonconsumptive effects of omnivorous tadpoles on aquatic invertebrate communities
Ecosphere, 2023 Consumptive effects (CEs) of predation have been well‐studied in most aquatic systems, but nonconsumptive effects (NCEs) on prey have only recently received limited attention.

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 ...

Animals, 2023 Disruptive selection arises when extreme phenotypes have a fitness advantage compared to more-intermediate phenotypes. Theory and evidence suggest that intraspecific resource competition is a key driver of disruptive selection. However, while competition

Acta Herpetologica, 2010 We examined monthly variation in the characteristics of river sections along the Río Salado (Puebla, Mexico) and how these factors were associated with the dis- tribution of the tadpoles of the toad Ollotis occidentalis.

Papéis Avulsos de Zoologia, 2013 This study redescribes the tadpoles of Hyloxalus subpunctatus (Anura: Dendrobatidae) based on larvae from the type locality and over most of its geographic range, including all stages of ontogenetic development.

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021 Pesticides are a major cause of the reduction in the global amphibian population. In this study, the acute toxicity and chronic effects of metamifop on Xenopus laevis (X. laevis) tadpoles were investigated. The 96 h-LC50 value of metamifop on X.
