Abstract Biodiversity loss is extreme in amphibians. Despite ongoing conservation action, it difficult to determine where we stand overcoming their extinction crisis. Among the most threatened amphibians are 131 Neotropical harlequin toads. Many of them declined since 1980s with several considered possibly extinct. Recently, more than 30 species have been rediscovered, raising hope for a reversing trend amphibian We use past and present data available toads ( Atelopus ), examine whether...
DNA analysis is a “gold standard” for individual identification and parentage studies as humans, so animals (Saks et al., 1991). First forensic testing of the rare animal species occurred in 1991 Great Britain, when case illegal capture Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus) nestlings was proved by using fingerprints birds question other peregrines captivity (Shorrock, 1998). In Russia, foreign sales main threat Saker cherrug) Gyrfalcon rusticolus) populations (Kovács 2014; Lobkov 2020). 2021,...
We extend by 300 m the known upper elevational range of Marsupial frog, Gastrotheca marsupiata (Dumeril & Bibron, 1841), to 4,660 a.s.l. This record makes G. highest occurring frog in its genus, which is already characterized high-elevation distributions. suggest that this may represent a case climate-induced shifting and discuss context our still limited understanding how amphibian distributions are being affected climate change.
