Amphibian reproductive modes (RMs) have been extensively described and applied to
amphibian biology studies. However, due to new behavioural observations and past system …

Although most of the unique ways that frogs reproduce were described in the 1800s and
1900s, additional modes are still being discovered in the 21st Century. The concept of …

Reeds are a tall, thin, shrubby, highly productive grass of the Poaceae family, and have a
worldwide distribution except for in Antarctica. Temperate reed species include Phragmites …

Aim Amphibians exhibit two basic reproductive modes, terrestrial and aquatic, each with
different ecophysiological constraints related to evaporative water loss. We hypothesize that …

Highlights•Anurans employ complex sequences of multiple notes.•These sequences vary
according to behavioural context.•In territorial disputes, male frogs change the pattern and …

The genus Raorchestes is a large radiation of Old World tree frogs for which the Western
Ghats in Peninsular India is the major center for origin and diversification. Extensive studies …

Anurans show the highest diversity in reproductive modes of all vertebrate taxa, with a
variety of associated breeding behaviours. One striking feature of anuran reproduction is …

The importance of patch quality for amphibians is frequently overlooked in distribution
models. Here we demonstrate that it is highly important for the persistence of endemic and …

Some amphibian species have developed a breeding strategy in which they deposit their
eggs in stable foam nests to protect their eggs and larvae. The frog foam nests are rich in …

In this study, we provide the description of reproductive behaviour and also report the first
evidence and description of vocalization in Tylototriton himalayanus, a recently described …
