中国特有两栖动物研究1.山东半岛林蛙的生活史(英文)

Natural History Studies of Chinese Endemic Amphibians I.Life History of Wood frogs in Shandong Peninsula

生活史的研究可以为系统发育研究和珍稀濒危物种的保护和管理对策的制定提供参考资料。林蛙是我国分布比较广泛而复杂多样的一个类群,在山东半岛的昆嵛山和崂山,分别分布有昆嵛林蛙(Rana kunyuen-sis)和中国林蛙(R.chensinensis)。本文报道我们从1997年到2006年,对这两种林蛙在山东半岛的地理分布、繁殖习性、蝌蚪特征和生长发育以及冬眠等方面的调查和观察研究结果。结果表明昆嵛林蛙和分布于崂山的中国林蛙尽管在栖息地生境方面比较相似。

Natural history observation can provide information for phylogenetic analysis and are critical for development of conservation and management strategies. There are two wood frogs-Rana kunyuensis, and R. chensinensis distributed at Kunyu and Laoshan mountains separately in Shandong Peninsula. Their life history, mainly including the distribution, breeding activity, tadpole characters and development and hibernation were reported according our works from 1997 to 2006 by surveys and laboratory observation.
