An investigation of the alarm response in anuran amphibian larvae

Creator:: Hews, Diana K.
Abstract:: The results of my research suggest that tadpoles of the Western toad (Bufo boreas) and the Cascades frog (Rana cascadae) display an alarm response to chemicals from injured conspecific tadpoles. Furthermore, results suggest that the Bufo boreas alarm response can be elicited by a natural predator when it feeds on...
