Dispersal and the metapopulation paradigm in amphibian ecology and conservation: are all amphibian populations metapopulations?
M Alex Smith, D M. Green - Ecography, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
Amphibians are frequently characterized as having limited dispersal abilities, strong site
fidelity and spatially disjunct breeding habitat. As such, pond‐breeding species are often …
