Updated distribution and biogeography of amphibians and reptiles of Europe
- Neftalí Sillero, J. Campos, +16 authors M. Vences
- Biology
- 2014
A precise knowledge of the spatial distribution of taxa is essential for decision-making processes in land management and biodiversity conservation, both for present and under future global change… Expand
The conservation status of the world's reptiles
Effective and targeted conservation action requires detailed information about species, their distribution, systematics and ecology as well as the distribution of threat processes which affect them.… Expand
Patterns of Endemism and Species Richness in Malagasy Cophyline Frogs Support a Key Role of Mountainous Areas for Speciation
- K. Wollenberg, David R. Vieites, A. van der Meijden, F. Glaw, D. Cannatella, M. Vences

Abstract Cophyline narrow-mouthed frogs (Anura: Microhylidae) are a diverse endemic radiation of Madagascar. Cophylines contain a high proportion of range restricted species and constitute a good… Expand
Environmental temperatures shape thermal physiology as well as diversification and genome-wide substitution rates in lizards
- Joan Garcia-Porta, Iker Irisarri, +42 authors Katharina C. Wollenberg Valero
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Communications
- 9 September 2019
Climatic conditions changing over time and space shape the evolution of organisms at multiple levels, including temperate lizards in the family Lacertidae. Here we reconstruct a dated phylogenetic… Expand
Molecular phylogeny, morphology and bioacoustics reveal five additional species of arboreal microhylid frogs of the genus Anodonthyla from Madagascar
- M. Vences, F. Glaw, J. Köhler, K. C. Wollenberg
- Biology
- 2010
We provide a partial revision of the microhylid frogs of the genus Anodonthyla, endemic to Madagascar, based on comprehensive molecular, bioacoustic and morphological data sets that include newly… Expand
Transcriptomic and macroevolutionary evidence for phenotypic uncoupling between frog life history phases
- K. C. Wollenberg Valero, Joan Garcia-Porta, +10 authors M. Vences
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature communications
- 15 May 2017
Anuran amphibians undergo major morphological transitions during development, but the contribution of their markedly different life-history phases to macroevolution has rarely been analysed. Here we… Expand
Species list of the European herpetofauna – 2020 update by the Taxonomic Committee of the Societas Europaea Herpetologica

Diversity of miniaturized frogs of the genus Adelophryne (Anura: Eleutherodactylidae): A new species from the Atlantic Forest of northeast Brazil
- Ricardo Lourenço-de-Moraes, I. R. Dias, +6 authors R. P. Bastos
- Geography, Medicine
- PloS one
- 19 September 2018
The number of species of frogs in the South American genus Adelophryne has increased in recent years, and it has become apparent that this group contains a substantial amount of undescribed… Expand
Mechanisms of convergent egg-provisioning in poison frogs
- E. K. Fischer, A. Roland, +7 authors L. O’Connell
- Biology
- 30 May 2019
Parental provisioning of offspring with physiological products occurs in many animals. Within amphibians, maternal provisioning has evolved multiple times, including in South American dendrobatid and… Expand
