| 1 | Circadian Rhythm of Calling Behavior in the Emei Music Frog(Babina daunchina) is Associated with Habitat Temperature and Relative Humidity显示文摘Generally, the function of vocalizations made by male anurans are to attract females or defend resources. Typically, males vocalize in choruses during one or more periods in a twenty-four-hour cycle, which varies, however, among species. Nevertheless, the causal factors influencing circadian variations of calling patterns in anuran species are not clear. In this study, male chorus vocalizations were monitored in the Emei music frog(Babina daunchina) for 17 consecutive days during the breeding season, while its habitat air temperature and relative humidity in the course of experiments were measured as well. The results revealed that the circadian calling patterns were characterized by two periods of peak vocalization, which were observed from 0500 h to 0700 h and from 1300 h to 2000 h, while the lowest activity period was found from 2100 h to 2200 h. Both calls/h and notes/h were positively correlated with air temperature and negatively with relative humidity. Overall, our data indicate that the Emei music frogs(B. daunchina) could regulate their vocal activities based on the changes of physical micro-environment(e. g., temperature or humidity) to maximize reproductive success. | Jianguo CUI Xiaoyan SONG Guangzhan FANG Fei XU Steven E.

| 2 | Effects of Body Size and Environmental Factors on the Acoustic Structure and Temporal Rhythm of Calls in Rhacophorus dennysi显示文摘In anurans, the outcomes of male-male contests and female choice are often associated with body size. In some species, males evaluate an opponent's fighting ability and females evaluate male quality on the basis of male communication signals, which are thought to reflect information concerning male body size. Nevertheless, previous studies reveal that male call structure is not always correlated with body size. In the present study we investigated the relationships between body size and call structure in the large treefrog, Rhacophorus dennysi, as well as the relationship of its calling behavior with air temperature and humidity. The results show that both the dominant and fundamental frequencies are negatively correlated with body size, while inter-note intervals are positively correlated with body size, indicating that call characters could reflect body size in this species.Additionally, calling in this tropical species exhibits a circadian rhythm insofar as relatively high temperature and low humidity during the day is associated with less vocal behavior. Thus, individual variations in call structure are mainly dependent on body size while the temporal rhythm of calling activity is affected by environmental conditions in large treefrogs. | Jichao WANG Jianguo CUI Haitao SHI Steven E.BRAUTH Yezhong TANG | 2012 | Asian Herpetological Research2012,3,3: | 10 |
| 3 | Changes in Electroencephalogram Approximate Entropy Reflect Auditory Processing and Functional Complexity in Frogs显示文摘Brain systems engage in what are generally considered to be among the most complex forms of information processing. In the present study, we investigated the functional complexity of anuran auditory processing using the approximate entropy(Ap En) protocol for electroencephalogram(EEG) recordings from the forebrain and midbrain while male and female music frogs(Babina daunchina) listened to acoustic stimuli whose biological significance varied. The stimuli used were synthesized white noise(reflecting a novel signal), conspecific male advertisement calls with either high or low sexual attractiveness(reflecting sexual selection) and silence(reflecting a baseline). The results showed that 1) Ap En evoked by conspecific calls exceeded Ap En evoked by synthesized white noise in the left mesencephalon indicating this structure plays a critical role in processing acoustic signals with biological significance; 2) Ap En in the mesencephalon was significantly higher than for the telencephalon, consistent with the fact that the anuran midbrain contains a large well-organized auditory nucleus(torus semicircularis) while the forebrain does not; 3) for females Ap En in the mesencephalon was significantly different than that of males, suggesting that males and females process biological stimuli related to mate choice differently. | Yansu LIU Yanzhu FAN Fei XUE Xizi YUE Steven E.BRAUTH Yezhong TANG Guangzhan FANG | 2016 | Asian Herpetological Research2016,7,3: | 4 |
| 4 | Male Music Frogs Compete Vocally on the Basis of Temporal Sequence Rather Than Spatial Cues of Rival Calls显示文摘Male-male vocal competition in anuran species may be influenced by cues related to the temporal sequence of male calls as well by internal temporal, spectral and spatial ones. Nevertheless, the conditions under which each type of cue is important remain unclear. Since the salience of different cues could be reflected by dynamic properties of male-male competition under certain experimental manipulation, we investigated the effects of repeating playbacks of conspecific calls on male call production in the Emei music frog(Babina daunchina). In Babina, most males produce calls from nest burrows which modify the spectral features of the cues. Females prefer calls produced from inside burrows which are defined as highly sexually attractive(HSA) while those produced outside burrows as low sexual attractiveness(LSA). In this study HSA and LSA calls were broadcasted either antiphonally or stereophonically through spatially separated speakers in which the temporal sequence and/or spatial position of the playbacks was either predictable or random. Results showed that most males consistently avoided producing advertisement calls overlapping the playback stimuli and generally produced calls competitively in advance of the playbacks. Furthermore males preferentially competed with the HSA calls when the sequence was predictable but competed equally with HSA and LSA calls if the sequence was random regardless of the availability of spatial cues, implying that males relied more on available sequence cues than spatial ones to remain competitive. | Fan JIANG Guangzhan FANG Fei XUE Jianguo CUI Steven E.BRAUTH Yezhong TANG | 2015 | Asian Herpetological Research2015,6,4: | 4 |

| 6 | A New Species of the Genus Trimeresurus from Southwest China(Squamata:Viperidae)显示文摘Species from the Trimeresurus popeiorum complex(Subgenus: Popeia) is a very complex group. T. popeiorum is the only Popeia species known from China. During the past two years, five adult Popeia specimens(4 males, 1 female) were collected from Yingjiang County, Southern Yunnan, China. Molecular, morphological and ecological data show distinct differences from known species, herein we describe these specimens as a new species Trimeresurus yingjiangensis sp. nov Chen, Ding, Shi and Zhang, 2018. Morphologically, the new species distinct from other Popeia species by a combination of following characters:(1) dorsal body olive drab,without cross bands on the scales;(2) a conspicuous bicolor ventrolateral stripe present on each side of males, first row of dorsal scales firebrick with a white ellipse dot on posterior upper part in male, these strips absent in females;(3) eyes firebrick in both gender;(4) suboculars separated from 3rd upper labial by one scale on each side;(5) ventrals 164–168(n = 5);(6) MSR 21. | Zening CHEN Liang ZHANG Jingsong SHI Yezhong TANG Yuhong GUO Zhaobin SONG Li DING | 2019 | Asian Herpetological Research2019,10,1: | 2 |
| 7 | Coevolution of Male and Female Response Preferences to Sexual Signals in Music Frogs显示文摘Male signaling influences both female choice and male-male competition. Although male signaling characteristics and female preferences have been shown to coevolve in many species, few studies have examined whether male signal characteristics and male receiver responses related to male-male competition also coevolve. The present study tested the hypothesis that male and female signal receiver preferences may coevolve in parallel for frogs in the genus Babina by comparing the acoustic structure of male advertisement calls of four closely related and geographically isolated Babina species. Then we assessed the behavioral responses of both male and female B. daunchina(Emei music frog) to male call playbacks from each of the four species. The results support the hypothesis that male and female signal receiver preferences have coevolved in this species. Specifically, both male and female B. daunchina respond strongly to the heterospecific calls of B. hainanensis, suggesting that preexisting biases exist in both females and males. Both male and female individuals showed a slight response to the calls of B. adenopleura while no response was evoked by the calls of B. lini. The manifestation of similar response profiles in male and female B. daunchina to the calls of the four species support the idea that male and female signal receiver preferences evolved in parallel and that the origin of these receiver biases reflects adaptations dependent on the same neural and cognitive systems in both sexes. | Jianguo CUI Jichao WANG Guangzhan FANG Xiaowei SONG Steven E.BRAUTH Yezhong TANG | 2016 | Asian Herpetological Research2016,7,2: | 2 |
| 8 | Validity of Pelodiscus parviformis (Testudines:Trionychidae) Inferred from Molecular and Morphological Analyses显示文摘The validity of Pelodiscus parviformis within the genus is still not very clear. In this study, molecular and morphological data were combined to evaluate the validity of P. parviformis. The phylogeny of some species in Pelodiscus was reconstructed by maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference analyses based on five mitochondria DNA fragments(5308 bp of 12S rRNA, 16S rRNA, ND4, CO1 and Cyt b). The results of ML, MP and Bayesian analyses suggest that P. parviformis might be paraphyletic to P. sinensis, whereas the partitioned Bayesian analyses support the reciprocal monophyly of P. parviformis and P. sinensis. Considering the advantages of heterogenous characteristics of sequence evolution, we choose the result of partitioned Bayesian analyses. Furthermore, the morphological data lend support the distinct species status of P. parviformis and P. sinensis, such as tubercles on carapace skin, color of plastron skin, dark spots on plastron, basisphenoid characteristics(ratio of the smallest width to the largest width; the smallest width of basisphenoid is restrained by two holes on each side) and the shape of entoplastron. Combining the molecular and morphological data, we inferred that P. parviformis is a valid species. In addition, the results of this study suggest a new record of P. axenaria in Guangxi, China. | Ping YANG Yezhong TANG Li DING Xianguang GUO Yuezhao WANG | 2011 | Asian Herpetological Research2011,2,1: | 1 |

| 10 | Flexibility as a Strategy for Avoiding Call Overlap in Male Anhui Treefrogs显示文摘Male-male vocal competition is critical for mating success in anuran species;however,it remains unknown that how males regulate their competitive strategies dynamically during competition because calling is highly time-consuming,energetically demanding and likely to increase predation risks.Since different parts of calls will encode different information for vocal communication,we hypothesized that competitive strategies of male frogs may be modulated by the temporal and spectral features of different call notes.To test this hypothesis,the natural advertisement calls(OC),its modified versions with the first call note replaced by white noise(WN)or other notes and with the fifth call note replaced by WN,were played back to the Anhui tree frogs(Rhacophorus zhoukaiyae).Results showed that 1)males produced more competitive calls in response to acoustic stimuli compared to their baseline calling during silence;and 2)males emitted more non-overlapping calls compared to overlapping calls in response to the acoustic stimuli.These results are consistent with the idea that males are flexible to acoustic signals and their competition strategies are modulated dynamically by social contexts. | Jinjin SONG Ruolei SUN Ke FANG Baowei ZHANG Yezhong TANG Guangzhan FANG | 2020 | Asian Herpetological Research2020,11,3: | 1 |

| 16 | 思他宁在晚期胃肠道肿瘤患者合并恶性肠梗阻治疗中的应用(英文)显示文摘Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of stilamin in malignant bowel obstruction (MBO) due to advanced gastrointestinal carcinoma patients. Methods: 62 patients with MBO due to gastrointestinal carcinoma were randomly divided into two groups: routine therapy group (control group 30 patients) and stilamin group (32 patients). Stilamin group received routine therapy combined with stilamin (6 mg/d) by 24 hours continuous infusion for three to twelve days. The curative effec-tiveness was observed and compared between the two groups. Results: After treatment, the clinical symptoms of abdominal distention and abdominal pain were relieved significantly in stilamin group compared with the control group (84.4% vs 57.6%; P < 0.05). The exhaust of anus was more earlier (62.1% vs 25.6%; P < 0.05), and the average volume of gastrointestinal de-compression reduced more rapidly in stilamin group compared with the control group [(216 ± 158) mL/d vs (522 ± 184) mL/d; P < 0.001), smaller and less fluid-air in the intestinal and in the colon at the 81.3% of patients plain abdominal radiography were observed in stilamin group. Quality of life, evaluated with Karnofsky score (57 ± 7 vs 45 ± 9; P < 0.01), was improved significantly. Conclusion: The administration of stilamin, in combination with routine treatment can be very effective in the management of MBO. It can effectively relieve the symptoms of MBO and improve the quality of life in patients. | Jundong Wu Yezhong Zhuang Wenhe Huang Miansheng Huang Weifeng Wang Muming Xu | 2008 | The Chinese-German Journal of Clinical Oncology2008,7,4: | 0 |
| 17 | Perception and Recognition of Vocalization in Anuran Mate Choice显示文摘Vocal communications in frogs and toads have been highly diversified and become a hot topic in the fields of herpetology,ecology,and behavioral neuroscience.The present short review summarized several interesting phenomena of vocal communication found mainly in anurans that might contribute to the individual identification of mates or rivals,including call matching,aggressive signaling,acoustic complexity,signal exaggeration,the first note effect and left hemisphere dominance.Investigations on the perception and recognition of vocal communications will facilitate our comprehension of the adaptive mechanisms and evolutionary paths of anuran signaling systems.We proposed here that comparative studies on acoustic signal structures,codes of sender status,and auditory neural responses based on phylogenetic relationships across species can highlight further the evolutionary trajectory in anurans. | Fang LU Yezhong TANG Qin CHEN | 2020 | Asian Herpetological Research2020,11,4: | 0 |

| 20 | Transformation of low carbon steel during deformation at γ/α temperature based on online rolling data显示文摘Alloying elements,such as silicon and manganese,have a major impact on the phase transformation point of steel.Specifically,manganese is an element for the expansion and stability of the austenite region,while silicon can expand and stabilize the ferrite region.Phase transformation occurs during the hot rolling process for the steel with certain silicon content,which leads to great changes of the deformation resistance,thereby affecting the rolling stability.Consequently,a better understanding of phase transformation in the rolling process will contribute to the enhancement of product quality.In this paper,the on-line rolling data were processed by means of the inverse calculation method.In this method,the steel deformation resistance with various silicon and manganese contents was obtained and analyzed to determine the deformation behavior of the steel,which can help improve the on-line control model and enhance the steel quality. | WANG Jintao ZHANG Suoquan SUN Yezhong HE Xiaoming JIAO Sihai | 2012 | Baosteel Technical Research2012,6,4: | 0 |
