Reproductive output of the brown frog <em>Rana kukunoris</em> at high altitude of the Tibetan plateau

Rana kukunoris is endemic to the eastern Tibetan plateau and its breeding ecology was not known so far. In this study, we investigated the reproductive output patterns of the species during the breeding periods of 2012 and 2013. Our results showed that clutch size and total clutch volume increased w...
