Local demographic rates and Critical Thermal Maximum (CTMax) values of four Eleutherodactylus frogs in Puerto Rico, 2021-2022|生态学数据集|气候变化数据集

We determined the critical thermal maximum (CTMax) of six species of Eleutherodactylus frogs (Eleutherodactylus antillensis, Eleutherodactylus brittoni, Eleutherodactylus cochranae, Eleutherodactylus coqui, Eleutherodactylus juanariveroi, Eleutherodactylus wightmanae) to understand their response to warming temperatures. Data consist of capture history, body condition, and temperature at which the frog exhibited spasms and erratic behavior, which may impair predator avoidance. Our results underscored the potential vulnerability of Eleutherodactylus species exhibiting lower CTMax to the forecasted warming of tropical zones (e.g., E. wightmanae, E. brittoni).
