Cranial anatomy of the amazing bromeliad tadpoles of Phyllodytes gyrinaethes (Hylidae: Lophyohylini), with comments about other gastromyzophorous larvae
(Springer, 2017-03)
The ecomorphological guild “gastromyzophorous” joins tadpoles that inhabit flowing water and have an abdominal sucker which is employed to adhere to substrates. Historically, gastromyzophorous larvae were known in the ...
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 ...
Life on the edge: Tadpoles of Cycloramphidae (Amphibia; Anura), anatomy, systematics, functional morphology, and comments on the evolution of semiterrestrial tadpoles
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-08)
The evolutionary success of anurans can be partially explained by the occurrence of free-living larvae. Tadpoles occupy several distict habitats, including the terrestrial environment. Semiterrestriality appears to have ...
Anatomy of anuran tadpoles from lentic water bodies: systematic relevance and correlation with feeding habits
(MAGNOLIA PRESS, 2007-09)
I studied anatomy, gut content, and the relationship among these traits in a set of anuran tadpoles. Larval stages (mainly Gosner stages 31–36) of nineteen species from various lentic environments were selected. Morphological ...

Herein, we describe the external larval morphology, internal oral features, and chondrocranium of Trachycephalus imitatrix and Trachycephalus dibernardoi and the advertisement call of T. imitatrix. To our knowledge, this ...
Sequência de ossificação esquelética de Thoropa taophora (Miranda-Ribeiro,1923) e suas implicações ecológicas
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2021-07-23)
Os anfíbios anuros estão distribuídos em todos os continentes, exceto na Antártica, e compõem 87% de todas as espécies de anfíbios. A metamorfose – processo na qual as larvas tornam-se adultos – é característica dos anfíbios, ...
