The impact of Agri-Environment Schemes (AES) and red fox (Vulpes vulpes) on the density of European brown hare (Lepus europaeus) populations in Hungary

The paper examines how agricultural support schemes, vegetation types, and red fox populations affect European brown hare density in Hungary, finding that hare density is influenced by the proportion of AKG arable land and fox harvest rates.

Photo-based individual identification is more reliable than visible implant elastomer tags or toe tipping in young agile frogs

This study compares photo-based identification with visible implant elastomer tags and toe clipping in young agile frogs, finding photo-based methods significantly more reliable.

Put the frog in water: simple methods for improving individual identification as demonstrated with the agile frog

This paper develops photography methods to improve individual identification of agile frogs using natural environments and body posture, achieving high accuracy with HotSpotter software.

Do pyrethroid insecticides influence sex ratios in agile frogs (Rana dalmatina)?

This study examines the effects of pyrethroid insecticides on sex ratios in agile frogs, finding male-biased phenotypic sex ratios due to female-biased mortality, not sex reversal.

Behavioral anapyrexia as a response to virus infection in a poikilothermic vertebrate

The paper shows that infected tadpoles lower their body temperature more than uninfected ones, suggesting behavioral anapyrexia as a response to virus infection.

Interplay of genotypic and thermal sex determination shapes climatic distribution in herpetofauna

The paper shows that the climatic distribution of amphibians and reptiles is shaped by the interaction between genotypic and temperature-dependent sex determination systems.

Demographic pathways linking sex-chromosome system to adult sex ratio variation across tetrapods

The paper investigates how sex-chromosome systems influence adult sex ratios in tetrapods through demographic processes like adult mortality and maturation timing.

Infection with the chytrid fungus (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis) may distort sex ratio via sex reversal but not sex-dependent mortality in a common Eurasian amphibian

This study investigates whether chytrid fungus infection causes sex ratio distortion in common toads through sex reversal rather than sex-dependent mortality.
