Geographic Variation in Size and Shape of Neotropical Frogs: A Precipitation Gradient Analysis (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book expands our understanding of Neotropical frog distribution and evolution. In it, the author analyzes variation in Neotropical frog morphology by combining field data collection with museum collections. This book examines which factors influence the distribution of various Neotropical frog species. It also explores relationships between body size, shape, and the environment, specifically the connection between them and precipitation gradient. Including 18 morphometric characters, this study is the first of its kind to examine the influence of aridity on the morphology of tropical frogs. Groundbreaking in its approach, this book provides the first quantitative analysis of the relationship between climate and frog species richness. Its findings provide a foundation for understanding the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of frog communities in the face of environmental change.
