Predator avoidance behaviour has been observed in many species and can strongly affect trophic interactions. Animals frequently adjust their response to predators in proportion to risk; however, when they are exposed to chronic predation risk, some a

Although amphibians use human-created habitats in urban landscapes, few studies have investigated the quality of these habitats. To assess habitat quality of stormwater management ponds and adjacent urban uplands for wood frogs (Lithobates sylvaticus

Territorial disputes are frequently settled by an advantage afforded to one of the contestants by asymmetries such as size difference, strength and motivation. Allegheny Mountain Dusky Salamanders (Desmognathus ochrophaeus) are reported to defend cov

Adult males and females of Desmognathus ochrophaeus were tested in two-choice substrate discrimination trials in which salamanders were given a choice of the marked substrates of opposite-sex individuals from their own population and from a geographi

We conducted a comparative investigation of nest relocation and egg recognition by four species of streamside salamanders indigenous to eastern North America: Seepage Salamander (Desmognathus aeneus), Santeetlah Salamander (Desmognathus santeetlah),

We sampled the larvae of a rare streamside salamander, Eurycea junaluska, across a range of stream sizes to determine habitat use patterns at both reach (75-m length of stream) and watershed scales (i.e., the network of streams draining fourth-order

We sampled the distribution of northern dusky salamander (Desmognathus fuscus) nests at randomly selected 15 m stream reaches throughout a third-order watershed in eastern Maryland. Our goal was to investigate the distribution of nests in relationshi

The distribution of wetland breeding amphibians may be influenced by multiple habitat variables interacting at various scales. We applied a multi-scaled modeling approach to relate the presence and absence of carpenter frogs (Lithobates virgatipes),

While many amphibians have complex life cycles involving a primarily terrestrial adult phase and an aquatic larval phase, use of terrestrial habits by adult forms remains poorly understood. We used radiotelemetry to track the post-breeding dispersals
