Breeding activity patterns, reproductive modes, and habitat use by anurans (Amphibia) in a seasonal environment in the Pantanal, Brazil (2004, background): “The anuran fauna of the Pantanal is poorly known, both regarding its taxonomic composition and biology (e.g., Lutz, 1946, 1972; Bosch et al., 1996; Prado and Uetanabaro, 2000; Prado et al., 2000; Strüssmann et al., 2000; Prado et al., 2002).”
Description of a New Reproductive Mode in Leptodactylus (Anura, Leptodactylidae), with a Review of the Reproductive Specialization toward Terrestriality in the Genus (2002, background): “Recent studies report the existence of female parental care of eggs and tadpoles (Prado et al., 2000; Martins, 2001), but the exact description of calling and oviposition sites are lacking.”
Behavioural defences of anurans: an overview (2011, background): “This peculiar behaviour, as described by SAZIMA (1978), is a motionless behaviour preceded by short leaps.”
Systematics of the Neotropical Genus Leptodactylus Fitzinger, 1826 (Anura: Leptodactylidae): Phylogeny, the Relevance of Non-molecular Evidence, and Species Accounts (2014, background): “Skeletal characters were scored in specimens doubled-stained for cartilage and bone with alcian blue and alizarin red following Wassersug (1976). Prior to staining, specimens were rehydrated, eviscerated, and washed in distilled water; the duration of each step varied due to the size of the specimen”
