Most instances of detrimental environmental conditions are caused by human behaviour, and the amphibian decline crisis is not an exception. Although some species can be highly popular, amphibians are in general among the least preferred animals by people. This situation represents a source of direct and indirect threats to amphibians. In this chapt...
As the most threatened vertebrate class on earth, amphibians are at the forefront of the biodiversity crisis, with the recognition of global amphibian declines and extinctions dating back several decades now. The current Amphibian Conservation Action Plan is adopting two strategies to address the goal of the amelioration of the amphibian crisis: th...
Leiopelma archeyi Turbott 1942 (Anura: Leiopelmatidae) is a Critically Endangered amphibian that currently occurs in three areas of the North Island, New Zealand: Coromandel Peninsula, Whareorino Forest and Pureora Forest (Easton, 2018). Male parental care of eggs (1 - 2 clutches, each with 2 - 13 eggs) laid on land (e.g. under stones or inside dea...
Context Leiopelma archeyi is a threatened New Zealand amphibian species translocated for conservation purposes. A disease outbreak triggered the translocation of 70 frogs to Pureora Forest in 2006 to establish a new wild population of L. archeyi. Ten years after, 60 more frogs were translocated to this site to enhance the genetic and demographic pr...
Auheke: Ko tā te ture ki Aotearoa, mō ngā whakatau me ngā whakahaere o ngā momo koiora motuhake, me mahi tahi ki te iwi Māori o taua takiwāi.

Animals adopt different strategies to communicate by means of sound in noisy environments such that some species increase, while others decrease their vocal activity in the presence of interference. Anuran amphibians from diverse latitudes exhibit both kinds of responses. Recent studies have shown that males of Batrachyla taeniata and Batrachyla an...
Degradation phenomena affecting animal acoustic signals may provide cues to assess the distance of emitters. Recognition of degraded signals has been extensively demonstrated in birds, and recently studies have also reported detection of degraded patterns in anurans that call at or above ground level. In the current study we explore the vocal respo...
