The major clades of frogs were consistent in recent morphological and molecular analyses [ 46– 46].
Though evidence is limited, many cases of speciation within the spiny-throated reed frogs are consistent with peripatric speciation.
Although nonspecific, these signs, the high mortality rate, and the age of affected frogs are consistent with those reported for chytridiomycosis (2 ).
We found that population-level patterns of pesticide tolerance in wood frogs were consistent with evolutionary responses to agricultural pesticide use and that the patterns of induced versus constitutive tolerance were consistent with predictions of genetic assimilation.
The absence of cricket frogs from northeastern Illinois in museum collections is consistent with reports indicating virtual disappearance of cricket frogs from this area (Ludwig et al. 1992; Phillips CA, Brown LE, personal observation; Vogt 1981).
Our inclusion and phylogenetic placement of chicken, frog and salmon sequences (Fig. 4) is consistent with the view that the early CES divergence events occurred during the early stages of tetrapod evolution, but following divergence from bony fishes, which diverged much earlier from the common ancestor of all tetrapod CES sequences.
This is consistent with the properties of DICR in frog and mammalian skeletal muscles [6], [7] and indicates that frog α-RyR but not β-RyR mediates DICR that is coupled to and controlled by endogenous DHPRs in 1B5 myotubes.
Significant geographical variation in the call of H. leucophyllata is consistent with other studies on frogs (e.g., [ 6- 8, 23- 26].
The Maxwell-Vlasov system is advanced by using the following sequences (Umeda et al., 2009), which is consistent with the second-order leap-frog time-integration algorithm used in particle-in-cell simulations.
Sadly, of course, "sometimes a frog is just a frog".
