low reproductive skew despite high male-biased operational sex ratio in a glass frog with paternal care.	reproductive skew, the uneven distribution of reproductive success among individuals, is a common feature of many animal populations. several scenarios have been proposed to favour either high or low levels of reproductive skew. particularly a male-biased operational sex ratio and the asynchronous arrival of females is expected to cause high variation in reproductive success among males. recently it has been suggested that the type of benefits provided by males (fixed vs. dilutable) could also s ...	2015	26334630
characterisation of nine new polymorphic microsatellite loci in the reticulated glass frog hyalinobatrachium valerioi (centrolenidae).	here we document the development of thirteen novel microsatellite markers for the reticulated glass frog hyalinobatrachium valerioi (centrolenidae). nine of those markers were polymorphic and contained between 4 and 34 alleles per locus (mean = 20.3) in 138 individuals (91 males, 47 females) from the field site 'la gamba', costa rica. average observed heterozygosity was 0.76. two loci (hyval19 and hyval21) significantly deviated from hardy-weinberg equilibrium. we did not find evidence for linka ...	2014	25104868
