Transient integumentary structures in Boana riojana (Anura, Hylidae) tadpoles
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2019-10-24)
Few studies focusing on embryos and/or tadpole skin morphology have described sensory transient organs whose morphological variation could indicate some taxonomical or functional correlations. We explore here some integumentary ...
Acute Toxicity and Sublethal Effects Caused by a Commercial Herbicide Formulated with 2,4-D on Physalaemus albonotatus Tadpoles
(Springer, 2019-01)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the acute and chronic effects caused by exposure to the 2,4 dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D)-based commercial herbicide Amina Zamba® on Physalaemus albonotatus tadpoles from Gosner ...
Comparative morphology of pond, stream and phytotelm-dwelling tadpoles of the South American Redbelly Toads (Anura: Bufonidae: Melanophryniscus)
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2014-07)
We present a comprehensive review of larval morphology in the Neotropical toad genus Melanophryniscus. The taxa studied included 23 species with representatives of recognized phenetic groups and different larval ecomorphological ...
Habitat size changes morphological traits of Physalaemus albonotatus tadpoles
(Centro Studio Faunistica Ecologia Tropicali, 2019-01)
Desiccation exposes tadpoles to a decrease in habitat size due to a reduction in water depth and surface area. We tested the effect of surface area and water depth on growth and development of tadpoles of Physalaemus ...
Interaction between competitors and predators and its effects on morphological and behavioural defences in Scinax nasicus tadpoles
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2013)
Anuran tadpoles learn to recognize injury cues from members of the same prey guild
(Springer Heidelberg, 2016-07)
Recognition of predation risk from cuesreleased from injured heterospecific could be beneficialwhen prey belongs to the same prey guild. Here, we performedthree experiments. Experiment 1 showed that P.thaul tadpoles reduced ...
Larval anatomy of Andean tadpoles of Telmatobius (Anura: Ceratophryidae) from Northwestern Argentina
(MAGNOLIA PRESS, 2008-12)
In this paper I study the oral, buccopharyngeal, and musculoskeletal configuration in tadpoles of nine Telmatobius species from Northwestern Argentina (T. atacamensis, T. ceiorum, T. laticeps, T. oxycephalus, T. pinguiculus, ...
Anuran tadpoles inhabiting a fluoride-rich stream: diets and morphological indicators
(Elsevier, 2019-06)
We in situ assessed the influence of natural fluoride concentrations in lotic freshwater ecosystems on diet and morphology of Boana cordobae tadpoles. Two streams were sampled in Argentina: Los Vallecitos stream (LF-LV) ...

The genotoxic effects of the imidacloprid-based insecticide formulation Glacoxan Imida on Montevideo tree frog Hypsiboas pulchellus tadpoles (Anura, Hylidae)
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2014-03)
The neonicotinoid insecticide imidacloprid (IMI) affects the insect central nervous system and is successfully applied to control pests for a variety of agricultural crops. In the current study, acute toxicity and genotoxicity ...
