Ecophysiological observations on the body temperatures of the anurans Dendropsophus bifurcus, Rhinella marina, and Scinax ruber from upper basin Amazon in northeastern Ecuador

Ectothermic inhabitants of tropical forests are subjected to constant environmental temperatures, which determine their passive thermoregulatory strategies. We observe these trends during the summer of 2017, in the anurans Dendropsophus bifurcus, Rhinella marina, and Scinax ruber, in a tropical rain...
