Microfauna abundance counts across 18 sites, per 6 L of water filtered, per sampling period (early and late tadpole sampling). In the second sampling (late tadpole sampling), sites 11 and 17 were unable to be processed for identification due to severely eutrophic samples, so are excluded from the analysis. An asterisk indicates that Bd was detected on the tadpoles at that site.

Amphibian chytrid fungus, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), is associated with declines in ~500 amphibian species globally. Decades after initial disease outbreaks, the trajectory of impacted species varies substantially; while some species continue to decline, there are instances of natural recovery, such as the whistling tree frog, Litoria ver...
