The sensitivity of anuran to the effects habitat destruction and contamination has led a preoccupying global decline in their populations. Morphological biomarkers such as micronuclei other erythrocyte nuclear abnormalities (ENAs), well occurrence hepatic melanin, can be used evaluate impacts. In present study, these two parameters were combined for situ assessment soybean cultivation on grassf...

The use of biofloc technology (BFT) in narrow-clawed crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus) culture for 45 days was evaluated by production performance and physiological status crayfish. Four different stocking densities were tested BFT (20, 41.66, 62.5, 83.33 individuals m-2). Water quality parameters monitored to sustain desired levels management. growth did not show any significant differences amo...

The mountain chicken frog (Leptodactylus fallax) is the largest endemic amphibian species in Western Hemisphere. Since 1998, this critically endangered has been maintained as a European Endangered Species Programme, but low breeding success and high mortality rate threaten sustainability of captive population. In current study, we analyzed gross histopathologic postmortem information from 212 f...

•Vanzolinius discodactylus, a forest-dwelling frog species of western Amazonia in South America, varies in characters of color pattern, morphology, and advertisement call. Analysis of this variation indicates that very local (site) differentiation results in mosaic patterns of differentiation, largely obfuscating larger geographic patterns. Comparison of available genetic estimates of different...
