چکیده
|
The dietary habits of tadpoles of the nepalese anurans have not been well studied. here, we present an opportunistic observation of tadpoles of the terai tree frog, polypedates teraiensis feeding on rotten pumpkin (cucurbita moschata). we suggest further detailed study on the feeding habits of tadpoles in the changing climate in nepal as they could be used as model organisms to understand their trophic roles and to predict the ecological consequences of their potential loss.
