“…The anuran is an ideal model for exploring the influence of environmental changes on body size, since their highly permeable skin, unshelled eggs, low vagility, and frequent territoriality are particularly vulnerable to environmental stresses (e.g., temperature, precipitation, and ultraviolet radiation) [ 68 ]. However, few studies exploring body size variation have been conducted, of which only nearly 5% of all amphibian species have been studied, and there is much controversy as to whether the effects of environmental changes on body size variation support Bergmann’s rule [ 45 , 55 , 57 , 61 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 , 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 , 77 , 78 , 79 , 80 , 81 , 82 ]. Although the effect of temperature on body size is contested, precipitation, as a proxy for productivity, has been found to affect the body size of frogs [ 24 , 83 ].…”
