Anurans as prey: an exploratory analysis and size relationships between predators and their prey (2007, background): “This is the largest group and made up about 42% of the reports, and is formed by fishes, salamanders, turtles, lizards, crocodilians and some species of birds and mammals (see also Poulin et al., 2001; Bueno, Belentani & Motta-Junior, 2002; Seamark & Bogdanowicz, 2002; Fig.”
Experimental Evidence for Aposematism in the Dendrobatid Poison Frog Oophaga pumilio (2007, background): “Birds are common predators of frogs in the Neotropics (Stiles and Skutch, 1989; Poulin et al., 2001) and represent the largest group of predators on frog models in our study.”
Catastrophic Population Declines and Extinctions in Neotropical Harlequin Frogs (Bufonidae: Atelopus) 1 (2005, background): “Unusually warm, dry periods coincided with declines in at least three sites (Pounds et al. 1999, Ron et al. 2003, Burrowes et al. 2004) and it has been suggested that climate change might interact with disease agents (Pounds 2001, Pounds & Pushendorf 2004).”
FROM FOREST TO FARMLAND: HABITAT EFFECTS ON AFROTROPICAL FOREST BIRD DIVERSITY (2005, background): “…species can be seen, more or less regularly, in the forest understory around swarming army ant columns, feeding mainly on flushing arthropods and small vertebrates (Willis and Oniki 1978, see also Poulin et al. 2001 for the relationship between ant-following habits and predation on herpetofauna).”
