We investigated the roles of ecological and historical factors on the phylogenetic structure
and spatial and trophic niches of anurans in Caatinga and Atlantic Forest in the Brazilian …

Artificial ponds or irrigated systems scattered throughout farmlands can offer important

Researchers worldwide have reported several amphibian species declines in the last 30
years, most of them in Latin America (eg, Garcia-Rodrfguez et al. 2012) and Australia (eg …

We conducted a 12-month survey of anuran assemblages in two permanent lotic
ecosystems (Preto and Boleiras rivers) and their adjacent habitats within the Cerrado biome …

To coexist, two species should use available resources in different ways. These differences
may happen in three different dimensions: temporal, spatial and trophic. In frogs, differences …

We analyzed the feeding ecology of four Thoropa miliaris (Anura, Cycloramphidae)
populations from the Atlantic Rain Forest in Brazil. The diet was composed mostly of …
