Quinolizidine alkaloids in Ormosia arborea seeds inhibit predation but not hoarding by agoutis (Dasyprocta leporina)
(Kluwer Academic/plenum Publ, 2003-05-01)
Quinolizidine alkaloids (QAs) are secondary compounds found in seeds of many species of plants, possibly protecting them against pathogens and seed predators. QAs were isolated from Ormosia arborea seeds and bioassayed ...
Unpalatability of Hyla semilineata tadpoles (Anura) to captive and free-ranging vertebrate predators
(Universita Degli Studi Di Firenze, 1999-12-01)
This study examines the unpalatability of Hyla semilineata tadpoles, relating this possible defence mechanism to their black, presumably aposematic, colouration. Bullfrog tadpoles (Rana catesbeiana), similar in size to the ...

Toxicity of the fungicide trifloxystrobin on tadpoles and its effect on fish-tadpole interaction
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2012-02)
Contamination of aquatic systems is a major environmental stress that can interfere with predator-prey interactions, altering prey or predator behavior differentially. We determined toxicity parameters of the fungicide ...
