Many species of Neotropical frogs have evolved to deposit their tadpoles in small water bodies inside plant structures called phytotelmata. These pools are small enough to exclude large predators but have limited nutrients and high desiccation risk. Here, we explore phytotelm use by three common Neotropical species: Osteocephalus oophagus, an arboreal frog that periodically feeds eggs to its tadpoles; Dendrobates tinctorius, a tadpole-transporting poison frog with cannibalistic tadpoles; and Allobates femoralis, a terrestrial tadpole-transporting poison frog with omnivorous tadpoles. We found that D. tinctorius occupies pools across the chemical and vertical gradient, whereas A. femoralis and O. oophagus appear to have narrower deposition options that are restricted primarily by pool height, water capacity, alkalinity, and salinity. Dendrobates tinctorius tadpoles are particularly flexible and can survive in a wide range of chemical, physical, and biological conditions, whereas O. oophagus seems to prefer small, clear pools and A. femoralis occupies medium-sized pools with abundant leaf litter and low salinity. Together, these results show the possible niche partitioning of phytotelmata among frogs and provide insight into stressors and resilience of phytotelm breeders.

How far do tadpoles travel in the rainforest? : Parent-assisted dispersal in poison frogs
Pašukonis, Andrius; Loretto, Matthias-Claudio; Rojas, Bibiana (Springer, 2019)Parents can influence offspring dispersal through breeding site selection, competition, or by directly moving their offspring during parental care. Many animals move their young, but the potential role of this behavior in ... -
Communication between the tadpoles of the dyeing poison frog Dendrobates tinctorius (Anura, Dendrobatidae)

Contrasting parental roles shape sex differences in poison frog space use but not navigational performance
Pašukonis, Andrius; Serrano-Rojas, Shirley Jennifer; Fischer, Marie-Therese; Loretto, Matthias-Claudio; Shaykevich, Daniel A.; Rojas, Bibiana; Ringler, Max; Roland, Alexandre B.; Marcillo-Lara, Alejandro; Ringler, Eva; Rodríguez, Camilo; Coloma, Luis A.; O'Connell, Lauren A. (eLife Sciences Publications, Ltd, 2022)Sex differences in vertebrate spatial abilities are typically interpreted under the adaptive specialization hypothesis, which posits that male reproductive success is linked to larger home ranges and better navigational ... -
Aposematism facilitates the diversification of parental care strategies in poison frogs
Carvajal-Castro, Juan D.; Vargas-Salinas, Fernando; Casas-Cardona, Santiago; Rojas, Bibiana; Santos, Juan C. (Nature Publishing Group, 2021)Many organisms have evolved adaptations to increase the odds of survival of their offspring. Parental care has evolved several times in animals including ectotherms. In amphibians, ~ 10% of species exhibit parental care. ... -
Intraspecific divergence of sexual size dimorphism and reproductive strategies in a polytypic poison frog
Schlippe, Justicia Lia; Mayer, Martin; Lorioux-Chevalier, Ugo; Dittrich, Carolin; Rojas, Bibiana; Chouteau, Mathieu (Springer, 2023)Intraspecific variation in body size, both among populations and between sexes, is an important factor influencing life-history strategies. This variation might be the response to different environmental conditions, as ...
