Spreading of alien water frog species (genus Pelophylax) has been reported across Europe,
posing a severe risk for the replacement or genetic swamping of indigenous species. Crna …

Studying the distribution of morphologically cryptic animal species is always a very difficult
task. Because most marsh frog species (the Pelophylax ridibundus complex) are cryptic, we …
