Standard methods for marking caudate amphibians do not impair animal welfare over the short term: an experimental approach

D. R. Daversa, E. Baxter, G. Rosa, C. Sargent, T. Garner

This study evaluates the short-term welfare impacts of marking and handling alpine newts, finding that handling alone causes transient behavioral changes, while marking does not exacerbate these effects.

Broadening the ecology of fear: non-lethal effects arise from diverse responses to predation and parasitism

D. R. Daversa, R. F. Hechinger, E. Madin, A. Fenton, A. I. Dell, E. Ritchie, J. Rohr, V. H. W. Rudolph

The paper compares non-lethal effects of predation and parasitism using a framework and amphibian data, finding stronger responses to predation risks than parasitism.

Trait variation in patchy landscapes: morphology of spotted salamanders (Ambystoma maculatum) varies more within ponds than between ponds

E. T. Green, A. I. Dell, J. A. Crawford, E. G. Biro, D. R. Daversa

This study quantifies within- and between-pond variation in larval spotted salamander morphology and finds greater variation within ponds, particularly in tail morphology and mass-length relationships.

Microbial grazers may aid in controlling infections caused by aquatic zoosporic fungi

H. N. Farthing, J. Jiang, A. J. Henwood, A. Fenton, T. Garner, D. R. Daversa, M. C. Fisher, D. J. S. Montagnes

The paper evaluates how micrograzers control chytrid infections in amphibians by modeling their grazing impact on zoospores.
