Abstract "Amphibians are the oldest tetrapod group, showing an astonishing diversity in life styles, many of them, being unique in evolution. Moreover, they are in global decline. So, their study is fundamental to understand the evolution of diversity and also in order to conserve them. This book, authored by experts from around the world, summarizes the current knowledge on the evolutionary ecology of amphibians. The book treats biological concepts related to evolution, ecology, physiology, immunology, behavior, and morphology of amphibians in their different states. This book contains valuable information for evolutionary ecologists and herpetologists"-- Provided by publisher.
