What is it about?
The present study dives into the complex reproductive dynamics of a neotropical frog species. It addresses its reproductive behavior and testicular activity, with insights into how polyandry can influence frog reproduction.

Why is it important?
Reproductive activity of the species is seasonal Two distinct germinative patterns was identified between polyandric and non-polyandric species compared
Perspectives
Frogs are a worldwide spread animal species; their variability and complexity are invaluable to the ecosystems they're in. However, they have also been in grave danger from climate and environmental changes over the last decades. Understanding their reproductive characteristics is needed to better care for and protect the biodiversity that our planet needs to thrive.
