Here we present data from a study examining the correlations between human influences on habitat and prevalence of 2 amphibian pathogens (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis and ranavirus FV3) in populations of Rana clamitans in central and northeastern Ontario, Canada.
The amphibians, in approximate order of decreasing abundance, were: Acris crepitans, Pseudacris crucifer, Bufo americanus, Pseudacris triseriata, Rana catesbeiana, Rana clamitans, Bufo fowlerii.
Highlights from the Froglog and meeting include: Canada: Richard Wassersug of Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, who has studied frogs in that province for eight years, says several species are on the wane or have not been sighted recently, including leopard frogs and an albino form of the North American species Rana clamitans.
