Post-metamorphic development of Early Cretaceous frogs as a tool for taxonomic comparisons

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Specimens of a single but currently undetermined species of the anuran genus Liaobatrachus from the Lower Cretaceous of northeast China, including four articulated skeletons preserved on a single block of sediment plus two skulls and several additional adult skeletons on other slabs, illustrate post-metamorphic developmental stages from early juvenile to fully grown adult. The relative ages of the individuals were estimated based on body size combined with degree of ossification. Post-metamorphic developmental data not only provide a basis for comparisons with other fossil and recent anuran taxa, but also help to identify both age-independent (i.e., size-independent) characters that can be used for taxonomic comparisons among individuals of various sizes (i.e., ages) and age-dependent (i.e., size-dependent, ontogenetically variable) characters that can only be used for comparisons across corresponding developmental stages. Our study revealed that the following characters are independen
