Thesis (Ph.D.)--Michigan State University, 1985.

This dissertation reports a year-long study of the reproductive biology of five ranid frog species in human-disturbed habitats of aseasonal West Java. Field observations and laboratory dissections were conducted on Rana cancrivora, R. limnocharis, R. erythraea, R. chalconota and Ooeidozyga lima.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This dissertation reports a year-long study of the reproductive biology of five ranid frog species in human-disturbed habitats of aseasonal West Java. Field observations and laboratory dissections were conducted on Rana cancrivora, R. limnocharis, R. erythraea, R. chalconota and Ooeidozyga lima.
520 $a Field observations revealed no seasonal partitioning in calling or mating behaviors. Genetic isolation was promoted by temporal (over a 24-hour cycle) and microhabitat partitioning, body size differences and distinctive mating calls.
520 $a Dissections of monthly samples were performed. Sexual size dimorphism was present in all species (females larger than males). Within the community, the possession of large fat bodies was not related to size, sexual maturity, reproductive readiness of females or time of year. External secondary sexual characteristics of males were an accurate indicator of sexual maturity. An interspecific positive correlation existed between female body size and ovum diameter when four of the five species were considered. An intraspecific positive correlation between female body size and ovum diameter existed in two of the species. Intraspecific positive correlations between live weight and ovarian weight were present in all five species. An interspecific positive correlation between mean live weight and mean ovarian weight was present.
520 $a Mean percent body weight contributed by ovarian weight in reproductively ready females ranged from 6.5% to 11.7% for the five species. This percentage was not significantly correlated with body weight among the species. Mean clutch sizes ranged from 434 to 13,611 for the five species. There was a pattern of increased clutch size with increased species size. No seasonality in male or female reproductive characteristics was observed.
520 $a Four of the five species had large clutch size when compared to temperate zone Rana or Bornean tropical rainforest Rana. Net reproductive rates for the West Javan ranids are likely higher than those of their temperate zone relatives. Indirect evidence suggested that females produce more than one clutch per year. In view of their reproductive characteristics, the five species were relatively aligned on the "r-K" selection continuum and their position on this scale was considered in relation to the zoogeographical range of each species. The degree of "r" selectedness was not perfectly related to large geographic range among the species.
