Confirmation of the Applicability of Skeletochronology and Estimating the Age Structure of <i>Kaloula borealis</i> (Microhylidae: Anura) at Lake Sihwa, South Korea

Despite having some limitations, the use of skeletochronology—age determination by counting lines of arrested growth (LAGs)—in amphibians is increasing.
