Abstract

ABSTRACT The complete skeleton and muscular systems of the burrowing microhylid frog, Barygenys maculata, are described and are compared to that of the morphologically similar burrowing African frog, Hemisus marmoratus. Based on morphological similarities it is assumed that their burrowing methods are similar though no direct observations have been made on Barygenys in life. What little is known about other aspects of the natural history of Barygenys species is also recounted.
新几内亚一种穴居蛙的肌肉骨骼系统和自然历史
摘要:本文描述了穴洞微水螅蛙(Barygenys maculata)的完整骨骼和肌肉系统,并将其与形态相似的穴洞非洲蛙(Hemisus marmoratus)进行了比较。基于形态上的相似性,人们假设它们的挖洞方法相似,尽管没有对生活中的Barygenys进行直接观察。对Barygenys物种自然史的其他方面知之甚少的情况也进行了叙述。
