Andrea D. Phillott,Lee F. Skerratt,Lee Berger,Richard Speare,Keith R. McDonald,Scott D. Cashins,Diana Mendez,Harry B. Hines,Ross A. Alford,Jodi J. L. Rowley,S. Townsend,R. Campbell,Rebecca J. Webb,Jamie Voyles,Robert Puschendorf,Sam Young +15 more
TL;DR: It is expected that understanding the epidemiology of this disease will lead to better management of chytridiomycosis and improved conservation for frogs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prey resources are equally important as climatic conditions for predicting the distribution of a broad‐ranged apex predator
Luke J. Sutton,David L. Anderson,Miguel Franco,Christopher J. W. McClure,Everton B. P. Miranda,F. Hernán Vargas,José de J. Vargas González,Robert Puschendorf +7 more
TL;DR: This paper showed that incorporating food resource distributions are important for improving model predictions at large distribution scales, particularly relevant to understand the factors limiting the distribution of widespread apex predators whose diets are likely to vary across their range.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphological divergence and reduced ectoparasite prevalence in an introduced population of a Caribbean anole
V. Bodden,Robert Puschendorf +1 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the morphology and ectoparasite prevalence of Maynard’s anole in its native range Little Cayman, and across its introduced range Cayman 18 Brac where it was discovered 31 years ago suggests spatial sorting could have selected for decreased ectoparsite prevalence on the range edge of the introduced population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterisation of microsatellites for Litoria nannotis (Amphibia : Hylidae), an endangered waterfall frog endemic to the Australian Wet Tropics
TL;DR: These loci will be useful in understanding the genetic variation and connectivity amongst populations of this species recovering from mass population declines due to disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patterns of species richness and turnover in endemic amphibians of the Guineo‐Congolian rain forest
Lotanna M. Nneji,Josué A. R. Azevedo,O. O. Oyebanji,Liang Ma,Paul R. Elsen,Segun Olayinka Oladipo,Gabriel Salako,Robert Puschendorf,Robert M. Pringle +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors test the hypothesis that turnover in endemic amphibians of the African Guineo-Congolian (GC) biodiversity hotspot is influenced mainly by the geographic distance between grid cells and secondarily by rainfall and temperature-related variables.
