Abstract
At the time of the recent description of Beytell's bullfrog (Pyxicephalus beytelli), no information about the breeding biology of this frog was known to science. The intensive publicity in the social media that followed this description caught the eye of a USA-based film maker who incidentally recently filmed the breeding biology of this frog in the Okavango Delta in northern Botswana. This paper is based on these observations.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
