Predation by Atractosteus tropicus on Bufo marinus and its possible affect on population in a lowland tropical wet rainforest (2010)
Journal Article

Fish predation can affect amphibian populations. Most examples report invasive fish species and their negative effect on specific amphibians. Here we provide an occurrence of natural fish predation by the tropical gar Atractosteus tropicus on the can...

Communal behaviour by Basiliscus plumifrons (Cope 1876) in a Manicaria swamp forest, northeast Costa Rica (2009)
Journal Article

Se describe un comportamiento comunal en Basiliscus plumifrons en una localidad costera del nordeste de Costa Rica. Dos ejemplares de esta especie, macho y hembra, fueron observados juntos sobre una rama a 1.6 m de altura a las 21.30 h de la noche. S...

Environmental influences on the population ecology of sixteen anuran amphibians in a seasonally flooded neotropical forest (2009)
Thesis

Amphibians are declining globally from climate change, habitat destruction, pollution and disease. In tropical environments deciphering causes of decline is hampered by a lack of population data. In this study, climate, water quality and amphibian po... Read More about Environmental influences on the population ecology of sixteen anuran amphibians in a seasonally flooded neotropical forest.
