1湖北神农架国家级自然保护区两栖爬行动物物种多样性显示文摘对神农架自然保护区两栖爬行动物进行调查,整理了神农架自然保护区两栖爬行动物名录共71种,新发现湖北省新分布种6种,其中腾格里蛙Rana tenggerensis Zhao,MaceyetPapenfuss、宁陕小头蛇Oligodon ningshaanensis Yuan离原分布区较远,神农架新分布种3种,神农架两栖爬行动物的区系特征以东洋界(74.69%)为主,广布种(18.31%)、古北界(7%)种类次之,体现了南北混杂的特点。随着海拔的升高,两栖爬行动物生物多样性总体呈下降趋势,400~1600m两栖爬行动物生物多样性最高,随海拔下降的趋势不明显,1900m以上多样性急剧下降。杨林森 Kevin Messenger 廖明尧 2009四川动物2009,28,2:21
2Reclassification of Oligodon ningshaanensis Yuan, 1983(Ophidia:Colubridae) into a New Genus, Stichophanes gen. nov. with Description on Its Malacophagous Behavior显示文摘The complete mitochondrial cytb gene and the partial nuclear c-mos gene of Oligodon ningshaanensis Yuan, 1983 were sequenced and used for reconstructing the phylogenetic relationship of this taxon amongst alethinophidian snakes. Its strong affinity to the New World subfamily Dipsadinae and the Old World species Thermophis baileyi was inferred. Hemipenial morphology found by authors conflicts with the original description and its similarity with those of the dipsadid snakes is in accordance with our molecular results. Feeding tests show that O. ningshaanensis is a malacophagous predator, which is another matchless character for this species. This behavior is described and compared with other known slug- and snail-feeding snakes. The discovery of the particular position of our subject indicates that erecting a new genus is necessary accommodate this unique species.Xiaohe WANG Kevin MESSENGER Ermi ZHAO Chaodong ZHU 2014Asian Herpetological Research2014,5,3:3

4Antipredator Behavioral Responses of Native and Exotic Tadpoles to Novel Predator显示文摘Factors related to the invasion process, such as high abundance of invaders, residence time, and functional distinctiveness, are well documented, but less attention has been given to the effects of antipredator strategy of invasive species during colonization. In this study, we explored the antipredator strategy of an introduced species by comparing the predator avoidance behaviors of two native anuran species and one introduced('exotic') species in the presence of different predators. The two native anuran species used in the study were Black-spotted Pond Frog Rana nigromaculata and Terrestrial Frog Rana limnocharis. The introduced(invasive) species used was American bullfrog Lithobates catesbeianus. Chinese pond turtle Chinemys reevesii, Red-backed rat snake Elaphe rufodorsata, and Big-headed turtle Platysternon megacephalum were used as predator species. Chinese pond turtles and Red-backed rat snakes are native predators of Black-spotted Pond Frogs and Terrestrial Frogs, while Big-headed turtles are novel('unfamiliar') to the two frogs. All three predator species are novel('unfamiliar') to the American bullfrog. The results show that tadpoles of the two native species displayed behaviors of recognizing the two native predators, but did not display the capability of identifying the novel predator. Results from our study also suggest that American bullfrog tadpoles exhibited strong antipredator behavioral responses by displaying the capability of identifying 'unfamiliar' predators without cohabitation history and prior exposure to them. Such antipredator behavioral responses could have resulted in more favorable outcomes for an invading species during the invasive introductory process.Fang ZHANG Juan ZHAO Yujie ZHANG Kevin MESSENGER Yong WANG 2015Asian Herpetological Research2015,6,1:0
