How do embryos assess risk? Vibrational cues in predator-induced hatching of red-eyed treefrogs

Article Abstract:

The role of vibrations in predator-induced early hatching of red-eyed treefrogs, Agalychnis callidryas, is examined. It is found that embryos clearly distinguished among different vibration patterns and used cues in the gross temporal pattern in making their hatching decisions.

Development of red-eyed treefrog eggs affects efficiency and choices of egg-foraging wasps

Article Abstract:

The foraging behavior of social wasps (Polybia rejecta) on the eggs of red-eyed treefrogs (Agalychnis callidryas) is studied.
