Defensive behaviors in Pleurodema borellii (Anura: Leptodactylidae) from northwest Argentina

Anurans are common prey for several vertebrates and also invertebrates. In response to this predatory pressure, they exhibit various defensive behaviors. In this work we report liquid cloacal discharge, body inflation, stiff-legged posture and body vibration performed by Pleurodema borellii from San...

En respuesta a esta presión depredadora, exhiben diversos comportamientos defensivos. En este trabajo reportamos descarga cloacal líquida, inflación corporal, postura de piernas rígidas y vibración corporal realizadas por Pleurodema borellii de San Miguel de Tucumán, noroeste de Argentina. Estos múltiples comportamientos defensivos realizados juntos pueden obstaculizar o interrumpir la acción del depredador de manera más eficiente.
