Oldest record of Leptodactylus Fitzinger, 1826 (Anura, Leptodactylidae), from the early Pliocene of the South American Pampas
(Society of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2013-11)
The Neotropical frog genus Leptodactylus is one of the most taxonomically diverse of all neobatrachian anurans. Despite the genus being highly diversified and widely distributed today, the fossil record is scanty and ...
Helminth communities of Leptodactylus latrans (Anura: Leptodactylidae) from the Atlantic rainforest, south-eastern Brazil
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2015-03-01)
The helminth fauna associated with Leptodactylus latrans, a large frog living in a disturbed environment of Atlantic rainforest in south-eastern Brazil, was evaluated. We found eight helminth taxa, including five nematode ...
Energética alimentar em Rã-manteiga, Leptodactylus latrans (Anura, Leptodactylidae)
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2016-10-31)
O tamanho do alimento e a temperatura corpórea são dois fatores que reconhecidamente influenciam a resposta metabólica pós-prandial dos vertebrados ectotérmicos. Leptodactylus latrans é uma espécie generalista que consome ...
Age structure, growth pattern, sexual maturity, and longevity of Leptodactylus latrans (Anura: Leptodactylidae) in temperate wetlands
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2017-08)
We present the first data on age structure, growth pattern, and lines of arrested growth (LAG) for Leptodactylus latrans in temperate wetlands. Based on these data, we estimate LAG periodicity, age, size at sexual maturity ...
Identification of new ocellatin antimicrobial peptides by cdna precursor cloning in the frame of this family of intriguing peptides
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2020-11)
Ocellatins are a family of antimicrobial peptides found exclusively in the Leptodactylus genus. To date, 10 species have been studied and more than 23 peptides described. Here we report the sequences of five new peptides ...
Primer registro de miasis (diptera: sarcophagidae) en anuros de leptodactylidae (amphibia)
(Universidad de Sucre, 2015-07-02)
Effects of temperature and meal size on the postprandial metabolic response of Leptodactylus latrans (Anura, Leptodactylidae)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2019-10-15)
The postprandial increment of metabolism, often referred to as specific dynamic action (SDA), encompasses the summed costs of meal ingestion, digestion, absorption, and assimilation. Different SDA parameters, such as its ...
