• Assessing the Potential Impact of Cane Toads on Australian Snakes (2003, background): “Although it is possible that habitat differences will reduce contact with toads for some species, the fact that the toad is an extreme generalist in Australia and can be found in most habitats (Lever 2001) suggests that this factor will be relatively unimportant.”
• The behavioral ecology of cannibalism in cane toads (Bufo marinus) (2008, background): “One of the most intensively studied anurans worldwide is the cane toad Bufo marinus; for example, a recent 230-page book was devoted to reviewing published literature on this species (Lever 2001).”
• Modelling species distributions without using species distributions: the cane toad in Australia under current and future climates (2008, background): “The predicted maximum distance that Bufo marinus could travel as a function of core body temperature for each month of the year across Australia.”
• Population‐level declines in Australian predators caused by an invasive species (2009, background): “Bufo marinus is mainly nocturnal and occupies a variety of habitats (Lever, 2001).”
• Measuring amphibian immunocompetence: validation of the phytohemagglutinin skin‐swelling assay in the cane toad, Rhinella marina (2011, background): “1; now allocated to Rhinella marina under the nomenclatural scheme of Pramuk 2006) are large anurans native to South and Central America, but introduced to many countries worldwide in attempts to control agricultural pests (Lever 2001).”
• The amphibian decline crisis: A watershed for conservation biology? (2005, background): “A few, such as introduced cane toads B. marinus, are expanding their ranges to the extent of becoming pests (Lever, 2001).”
• Effects of nonindigenous tadpoles on native tadpoles in Florida: evidence of competition (2005, background): “marinus has expanded its range throughout much of southern peninsular Florida (Lever, 2001).”
