We updated the Crawford Lab bulletin board for the upcoming accreditation and prospi visits to DCB Uniandes @uniandes. Thanks ππΌ to very dedicated students|alumni & other brilliant co-authors, the Lab managed to produce some good stuff over the past coupla years, despite it all.
Itβs still happening. #Frogs are still being reported sick & dying across #Australia. Last night during fieldwork in #Sydney I found a just dead green stream #frog (Litoria phyllochroa). And itβs not the first Iβve found. Heartbreaking. π’ Pls report any to [email protected]
My book with Luke Harmon is out. At 440pp in length, & with 1000s of lines of R code, there are bound to be a few bugs. Readers are encouraged to report any issues that they encounter, & I'll document all corrections or addenda on the book webpage: phytools.org/Rbook/.
βPolymeliaβ = having too many limbs. In πΈ this can be caused by a trematode parasite infecting the tadpole, but also happens by rare chance. Javier Garcia of DCB Uniandes found this 5-legged dendrobatoid πΈ in Mocoa, Putumayo π¨π΄. Come to Museo de Historia Natural Uniandes and see it!
