New World direct-developing frogs (Anura: Terrarana): Molecular phylogeny, classification, biogeography, and conservation (2008, background): “In Central America, most of the species in Craugastor (Campbellius) and the Craugastor (Craugastor) punctariolus Species Group apparently have disappeared (Campbell 1999; McCranie & Wilson 2002; Savage 2002).”
Molecular diversification of salamanders of the tropical American genus Bolitoglossa (Caudata : Plethodontidae) and its evolutionary and biogeographical implications (2004, unknown): “Savage JM. 2002.”
Revision of the characters of Centrolenidae (Amphibia: Anura: Athesphatanura), with comments on its taxonomy and the description of new taxa of glassfrogs (2007, background): “Lynch and Ruiz-Carranza (1996) commented that several species lack nuptial pads: ametarsia, resplendens, spinosa, daidalea, savagei, solitaria, pulverata, fleischmanni, and lemur (but see McCranie & Wilson 2002; Savage 2002).”
A new skink fauna from Caribbean islands (Squamata, Mabuyidae, Mabuyinae) (2012, background): “Savage (2002) disagreed with Taylor (1956) and instead recognized only one Middle American species, Marisora unimarginata, noting that populations of the various species recognized by Taylor (1956) in Costa Rica showed intergradation.”
Amphibian Population Declines in Latin America: A Synthesis 1 (2005, background): “Despite our knowledge of many aspects of amphibian biology (Duellman 2001, Savage 2002), basic ecological and natural history data are lacking for most tropical species, thus preventing detailed comparisons and metaanalyses.”
Verified non-indigenous amphibians and reptiles in Florida from 1863 through 2010: Outlining the invasion process and identifying invasion pathways and stages (2011, background): “The Argentine Boa Constrictor, Boa constrictor occidentalis Philippi 1873, is indigenous to Argentina, Paraguay, and southern Bolivia (McDiarmid et al. 1999; Savage 2002).”
Systematics of the Neotropical Genus Leptodactylus Fitzinger, 1826 (Anura: Leptodactylidae): Phylogeny, the Relevance of Non-molecular Evidence, and Species Accounts (2014, unknown): “8, 13, 18; McCranie and Wilson, 2002:448–449, Orton, 1951:62–66, Savage, 2002:215–217).”
Historical biogeography of lowland species of toads (Bufo) across the Trans‐Mexican Neovolcanic Belt and the Isthmus of Tehuantepec (2006, background): “All three species are invasive, ‘weedy’ species that are typically more abundant in secondary, degraded habitats than in undisturbed primary forests (Zug & Zug, 1979; Mendelson, 1994; Lee, 1996; Campbell, 1998; McCranie & Wilson, 2002; Savage, 2002).”
