Essay about Purple Frog Monitoring of breedingin Nasikabatrachus sahyadrensis Breeding patterns of anurans are influenced by abiotic factors such as rainfall, temperature (Saenz et al., 2006), food availability, interspecific competition, predators (Wilbur, 1972; Wilbur 1980) and factors influencing the life history (Wilbur, 1987). In the case of explosive breeders that use ephemeral water bodies, calling in males is clearly associated with rainfall (Saenz et al., 2006). Our observations suggest that N. sahyadrensis is an explosive breeder, i.e. the frog reproduces within a very short favourable time period, and it recedes soon after. Further, among explosive breeders, females are attracted to breeding sites by male vocalizations (Duellman, 1985). Torrential streams (Fig. 4) are the breeding sites of N. sahyadrensis where males aggregate and call.

The consistency in call initiation and amplexus, and egg laying during the years 2007, 2008 and 2009, prompted us to infer that the breeding activity in this species is closely related to monsoonal rainfall in the study area. Amplexus and egg laying was observed only on days with heavy rainfall (range: 30-80 mm) or the subsequent day during the south west monsoon. Rainfall controls circum-annual activity in anurans in the tropical regions (Duellman, 1978; Aichinger, 1987; Bertoluci, 1998).

Because parental care or nest building was not observed in N. sahyadrensis, it is hypothesized that all its reproductive effort is used for vocalization and sperm production in the males and egg production in the females. Calling is energetically expensive and exposes the caller to predators (Pough et al., 1992). The adaptation of calling displayed by N. sahyadrensis from below the ground, coupled by the short above ground breeding period, probably minimizes mortality due to predators.

As I walked down the rainy dock, the shadows attacked my back like ravenous rats, thrashing and gnawing at my flesh. I turned around, and there was nothing there, but I swore I had felt something. Then my girl came running out of the twilight mist, and she was sobbing, carrying her only lucky blue bag in her right arm. “They took everything I had!” she cried. To that I replied “I know, don’t ever leave me again”

Yeah, there are definitely some things you can kind of mess around with, but music is most certainly not one of them ;) I'm digging the hell out of your library as well. I'm in love with all your top albums. Though admittedly haven't heard Jackson C. Frank, I'll be sure to check him out.

if you change the ‘a’ in your name to an ‘o’, your name starts to sound like the name of an Italian cheese sauce
