Start your week with some great insights to camouflage specialisation in leaf-micking toads using neat image analysis! New work by James Barnett, @KC_Michalis and the Bristolian camo-gang in JEB: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… #colsci (that's one heck of a judgy looking 🐸 right there)

Ep 32 has arrived - we try to get our heads around funky frogs. Discussion focuses on research from @JimBBarnett @KC_Michalis @JPLawrencePhoto and others, with a spiky frog for our Species of the Bi-Week. Listen here, or search your favourite podcast app: ow.ly/jYlm50i4mua

Se fondre dans le décor tout en arborant des couleurs vives pour indiquer sa toxicité? Tout n'est qu'une question de distance pour le Dendrobate! De loin, les dessins jaunes, noirs et bleus lui assurent un bon camouflage, de près ils donnent l'alerte aux prédateurs. xitter.cf/JimBBarnett/status/100…
