Dietary information is essential to understand amphibian life history, population fluctuations,
and the impact of habitat modification, and to develop conservation strategies (Anderson …

The niche overlap and resource partitioning were analyzed for five sympatric bufonids from
Northeastern Argentina: Rhinella schneideri, R. bergi, R. fernandezae, R. granulosa, and …

We investigated the diet of Engystomops pustulosus from a population in the Middle
Magdalena River valley, including an evaluation of theeffect of body and head size on prey …

In the present study, we investigated ontogenetic diet shifts, feeding strategy, prey
preferences, and basal food sources that sustain the Paradoxal frog (Pseudis minuta) based …

The study of the feeding ecology of amphibians is an old issue in herpetology.
Notwithstanding, the lack of food resources data in many studies of amphibians feeding has …

Habitat destruction and alteration are among the major causes of worldwide amphibian
declines. Resource limitation in altered environments can potentially affect trophic ecology …

Female fecundity is an important selective force leading to female-biased sexual size
dimorphism (SSD) in frogs. Because anurans exhibit diverse reproductive modes, we …

The diet of males of five syntopic hylid species from the Araucaria plateau of Rio Grande do
Sul was studied by stomach flushing. Because the duration of their breeding seasons was …

Age determination in amphibians is crucial to the investigation of life-history traits. In this
context, we studied, for the first time, the life-history traits of Boana pulchella from a sample …

Intrapopulation variation includes age and sexual variation, but also individual niche
specialization. Individual specialization has important effects on dynamics at population or …
