How to recover from a bad start: size at metamorphosis affects growth and survival in a tropical amphibian
Background In species with complex life cycles, size at metamorphosis is a key life-history
trait which reflects the complex interactions between costs and benefits of life in the aquatic …

Carry‐over effects of size at metamorphosis in red‐eyed treefrogs: higher survival but slower growth of larger metamorphs
RD Tarvin, C Silva Bermúdez, VS Briggs… - Biotropica, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Most animals have complex life histories, composed of a series of ecologically distinct
stages, and the transitions between stages are often plastic. Anurans are models for …

Cross-life stage effects of aquatic larval density and terrestrial moisture on growth and corticosterone in the spotted salamander
For organisms with complex life cycles, conditions experienced during early life stages may
constrain later growth and survival. Conversely, compensatory mechanisms may attenuate …

Mixed support for gene flow as a constraint to local adaptation and contributor to the limited geographic range of an endemic salamander
SJ Micheletti, A Storfer - Molecular Ecology, 2020 - Wiley Online Library

Stable isotope analysis reveals variation in trophic niche depending on altitude in an endemic alpine gecko
Interspecific competition is considered a major determinant of ecological niche. It is
hypothesized that increased competition should reduce niche breadth. However, there are …
