We estimated the age, longevity, and growth patterns of a subtropical ranid, Rana
swinhoana from high (Lishing) and low (Wulai) elevations using skeletochronology. In …

Age structure and body size of a population of the China Wood Frog (Rana chensinensis) in
northeastern China were determined by using skeletochronology. Lines of arrested growth …

We used skeletochronology to determine the ages of 149 (74 females, 44 males, and 31
juveniles) Mountain Yellow-legged Frogs (Rana muscosa) from 13 locations (elevation 1509 …

The age and body size of Amolops mantzorum between two populations distributed in
western China were estimated using skeletochronology. The age at sexual mature of …

To obtain demographic information on threatened gold-spotted pond frog (Rana chosenica
Okada, 1931) populations, we determined the ages of 45 male and 13 female frogs (20 …

Background The tendency for organisms to be larger in cooler climates, the so-called
Bergmann's rule, has been widely observed in endotherms, but it is debatable in ectothermic …

Identifying the patterns of body size and age in relation to altitudes may help us to
understand the evolution of life history of organisms. With this view, we compared the …

Using skeletochronology, we compared age structure in the breeding season in two
populations (Katata, Shiga Pref. and Shizuhara, Kyoto Pref.) of a pond frog, Rana …

Age determination in amphibians is crucial to investigation of life-history traits. In this context,
we studied age structure of the Guenther's frog, Hylarana guentheri, population from …

We used skeletochronology to estimate the age and growth patterns of a subtropical high-
elevation Torrent Frog, Amolops mantzorum, based on 138 adult specimens from western …
