Amphibians and reptiles of the state of Chihuahua, Mexico, with comparisons with adjoining states
Chihuahua is Mexico's largest state, and its physiographic complexity affects the distribution of its herpetofauna. We list amphibians and reptiles for the state of Chihuahua, with their conservation status. We also compare this list to those of six adjoining states in the United States and Mexico (New Mexico, Texas, Coahuila, Durango, Sinaloa, and Sonora). A total of 175 species of amphibians ...
متن کاملEmigration Orientation of Juvenile Pond-Breeding Amphibians in Western Massachusetts
We studied the emigration of juvenile age-class individuals of four species of pondbreeding amphibians at 14 seasonal ponds over four consecutive years in western Massachusetts. Emigration orientation of each species was non-uniform for the majority of pond-years examined. While orientation was decidedly non-uniform in most individual pond-years, combining data from successive years led to a mo...
متن کاملProjected climate impacts for the amphibians of the Western hemisphere.
Given their physiological requirements, limited dispersal abilities, and hydrologically sensitive habitats, amphibians are likely to be highly sensitive to future climatic changes. We used three approaches to map areas in the western hemisphere where amphibians are particularly likely to be affected by climate change. First, we used bioclimatic models to project potential climate-driven shifts ...
متن کاملEmigration Timing of Juvenile Pond-Breeding Amphibians in Western Massachusetts
—Understanding the timing of movement events of pond-breeding amphibians to and from breeding and natal ponds, respectively, is essential to implementing effective conservation and monitoring strategies for this group of vertebrates. In this study, we assessed the emigration timing of newly metamorphosed juveniles of four species of pond-breeding amphibians (Ambystoma maculatum, Ambystoma opacu...
متن کاملTiming of large movement events of pond-breeding amphibians in Western Massachusetts, USA
Understanding the factors influencing the timing of large movement events in pond-breeding amphibians has important conservation implications, especially with regard to establishing road closures aimed at minimizing road mortality. We examined the timing of juvenile emigration and adult immigration in four species of pond-breeding amphibians (Ambystoma maculatum, Ambystoma opacum, Notophthalmus...
