Abstract Temperature is essential for the survival and development of eggs. Some anurans have evolved and developed foam nesting traits, with thermal insulation considered to be among their functions. Foam‐nesting frogs tend to exhibit reproductive plasticity. For example, they oviposit on both tree...
