A comparison of the size of the urinary bladder of two south american anurans of different habitat
(1972)
1. 1. A comparison is made between the urinary bladder capacities of two South American anurans, the fully aquatic Calyptocephalella caudiverbera and the fully terrestrial toad Bufo arunco. 2. 2. They have a urinary bladder ...
The depressor mandible muscle in anurans
(International Society for the study and conservation of Amphibians, 2003-12)
It is well known that the diversity in anuran cranial structures is large, observed in the variation of the bone structure and associated muscles. The depresso mandibulae is the jaw muscle that opens the mouth and was ...
Anurans as prey: an exploratory analysis and size relationships between predators and their prey
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007-02-01)
The vertebrate predators of post-metamorphic anurans were quantified and the predator-prey relationship was investigated by analysing the relative size of invertebrate predators and anurans. More than 100 vertebrate predators ...

Anurans of a seasonally dry tropical forest: Morro do Diabo State Park, São Paulo state, Brazil
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2009-01-01)
We studied the richness and composition of the anuran assemblage of Morro do Diabo State Park, the major remnant of Mesophytic Semideciduous Forest in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, through hypothesis tests. From September ...

Unsuccessful predation attempts by snakes on anuran amphibians: How successful are snakes?
(2020-01-01)
Snakes and anurans are commonly involved in predator-prey interactions. The large number of records of predation events involving snakes and anurans suggests that snakes are frequently successful in their attempts to prey ...
Geographic variation in acoustic communication in anurans and its neuroethological implications
(Elsevier Masson SAS, 2014)
© 2014 Elsevier Ltd.Geographic variation of traits may represent the first step for evolutionary divergence potentially leading to speciation. Signals are behavioral traits of particular interest for the study of variation ...
Morphological Variation in Anuran Limbs: Constraints and Novelties
(Wiley-liss, Div John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2017-09)
Anurans have three primary types of locomotion: walking, jumping, and swimming. Additionally, they may dig, climb, grasp, etc. All adult anurans have four limbs, with four fingers on the hands and five toes on the feet. ...
