Becker et al. (Reports, 14 December 2007, p. 1775) reported that forest amphibians with terrestrial development are less susceptible to the effects of habitat degradation than those with aquatic larvae. However, analysis with more appropriate statistical methods suggests there is no evidence for a difference between aquatic-reproducing and terrestrial-reproducing species.
贝克尔等人(《报告》,2007年12月14日,第1775页)报告称,与具有水生幼体的森林两栖动物相比,具有陆地发育过程的森林两栖动物对栖息地退化影响的敏感度较低。然而,采用更合适的统计方法进行分析表明,没有证据显示水生繁殖物种和陆地繁殖物种之间存在差异。
