Predation risk and jumping behavior in Pseudopaludicola aff. falcipes tadpoles
(Oxford University Press, 2011-09-01)
Tadpoles of Pseudopaludicola aff. falcipes are capable of jumping out of small temporary puddles where they occur. In this system, odonate naiads are the main predators. Considering the hypothesis that jumping behavior ...

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 ...

The tadpole of Scinax catharinae (Anura : Hylidae) with description of the internal oral morphology, and a review of the tadpoles from the Scinax catharinae group
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2007-04-01)
We present a description of the external morphology and internal oral features of the tadpole of Scinax catharinae and comparisons with the known tadpoles of the S. catharinae group. Two characters of the external morphology ...

Cyanosis by methemoglobinemia in tadpoles of Cochranella granulosa (Anura: Centrolenidae)
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2010)
Maternally derived chemical defenses are an effective deterrent against some predators of poison frog tadpoles (Oophaga pumilio)
(2014)
Parents defend their young in many ways, including provisioning chemical defences. Recent work in a poison frog system offers the first example of an animal that provisions its young with alkaloids after hatching or birth ...
