Ontogenetic variation of thermal tolerance in two anuran species of Ecuador: Gastrotheca pseustes (Hemiphractidae) and Smilisca phaeota (Hylidae) and their relative vulnerability to environmental temperature change

Thermal tolerance and morphological plasticity have allowed amphibians to survive in many unusual habitats. Amphibians show a particular life cycle, presenting different ranges of thermal regimes in their different ontogenetic stages. In this study we show the critical thermal maximum (CTmax) and cr...
