Without their help, this thesis would have remained a loose collection of scattered ideas and half- formed hypotheses. I am indebted to each and every one of them. In particular, I must thank my supervisors, Jeremy Kerr and David Currie. Together, they have offered me guidance when I needed a guide, challenged me when I needed to be challenged, and encouraged me when I needed encouragement. Just as importantly, they allowed me to make mistakes along the way and gave me time to find the solutions. More than anything else, they gave me the freedom to explore any question that I found interesting and for that I am extremely grateful. They are both more than advisors and mentors; they are colleagues and friends. The impact that Tom Nudds has had on my life cannot be understated. He was my first mentor and, much to the frustration of many I'm sure, first introduced me to the philosophy of science. But more than that, he inspired me to be passionate about the scientific endeavour. Without Tom's influence I would not be pursuing a career in science. In addition to Tom, Darren Sleep also helped shape my earliest scientific years by making time for a wide-eyed undergrad despite the pressures of his own PhD; I can only hope I have provided one-tenth of the help to the undergrads I have since encountered. My advisory committee, Gabriel Blouin-Demers and Andrew Simons have greatly improved my research by having an uncanny ability to cut to the quick of an issue and to ask the right questions. Rees Kassen and Howard Rundle have also been sources of advice and both have been successful gadflies for evolution in the ear of a young macroecologist. ii Over the last five years, I have seen many lab-mates and colleagues come and go and all have taught me something. In particular Peter, April, Chris, and Lana made the first months of grad school enjoyable. Tony acted as an advisor and a bottomless pool of knowledge over many a breakfast. Justin, undoubtedly one of the brightest scientists I have ever met, taught me more about evolution than anyone else and was always up for a pint. Matt made long rides less lonely and with no one else could I have sat and discussed the applications of quantitative genetics to community ecology while watching suffering and glory on the roads of France. Nora spent hours searching the literature for data on hylid frogs - and, to her credit, did not complain once. Julie and Rachelle translated the abstract; any awkwardness in the French is not theirs, but is certainly due to the English material with which they had to work. Special thanks go to Heather, Erin and Rachelle. Heather, in addition to being a friend, has been, and hopefully will continue to be, a much appreciated collaborator and someone with whom to share my frustrations. Erin, more than anyone else, reminded me that the numbers in my spreadsheets represent real living things. Plus, she was willing to get up at 5 am and drive all over Ottawa searching for birds. Rachelle, who has been there almost from the beginning, your contributions are too many to count. I couldn't have asked for a better lab-mate or friend to sit beside every day for 5 years. NSERC provided much of the funding for my research. I can only hope that they support fair and equitable funding for the sciences in Canada in the future, despite pressure from current or future governments that do not understand or value what we do. My family's contribution goes far beyond the last five years. My mother was the first to teach me to enjoy and value learning. My father was the first to show me the wonder in 111 the diversity of living things. And my brother was always there when I needed him. Also, Marc and Christine have provided continual support. Gordon has been a source of much joy - much to the disappointment of a certain mother and mother-in-law who were hoping for human grandchildren. To quote Stanley Coren (MacLean's Dec. 2008) on Cairn Terriers: "When you spend your whole life in a research laboratory or at a keyboard writing, having a dog that makes you laugh is better for stress reduction than a psychotherapist." Without question, the person who has offered the most support and help along the way has been my beautiful wife, Leslie. She has held me up when life has threatened to push me down, and picked me up when it succeeded. She has shared in every joy and has been the source of most of them. She has sacrificed more than anyone can imagine and through it all, she has believed in me and my work, even when I have not. To do science is to ask questions - but no matter which questions I ask in the future, I have already asked the most important one. And Leslie answered yes. Leslie, throughout my university career, many people - Tom, Darren, Jeremy, David - have taught me to love reason. But you gave me a reason to love. I dedicate this thesis to you. IV Abstract It has long been recognized that climate can influence the diversity and dynamics of communities and regional assemblages. Within this thesis, I ask three questions: 1) which processes are most important in mediating climate-species richness relationships; 2) are predictions of spatial climate-richness models temporally consistent, and 3) is local community structure determined primarily by regional or local processes. Metabolic theory proposes that climate-richness relationships arise due to the temperature dependence of metabolic rate. I tested the theory's predictions for six taxa in North America. Contrary to the theory's predictions, temperature-richness relationships were curvilinear and their slopes deviated from the predicted value. This suggests that the mechanism proposed by metabolic theory does not underlie climate-richness relationships. If climate determines species richness, then climate should predict how species richness will change over time. To test this, I compared alternative methods (regression and niche modelling) of forecasting shifts in species richness given global climate change. Models were trained on butterfly richness data from the early 20th century and their predictions were compared to observed changes throughout the 20th century. Overall, regression-based approaches that incorporated spatial autocorrelation outperformed other methods Broad-scale richness gradients could arise from climatic niche conservatism.

    Of the Scinax Ruber Clade from Cerrado of Central Brazil

    Amphibia-Reptilia 31 (2010): 411-418 A new species of small Scinax Wagler, 1830 (Amphibia, Anura, Hylidae) of the Scinax ruber clade from Cerrado of central Brazil Manoela Woitovicz Cardoso, José P. Pombal Jr. Abstract. A new species of the Scinax ruber clade from the Brazilian Cerrado Domain similar to Scinax fuscomarginatus, S. parkeri, S. trilineatus and S. wandae is described. It is characterized by small snout-vent lenght, body slender, head approximately as long as wide and slightly wider than body, subovoid snout in dorsal view, protruding snout in lateral view, a developed supratympanic fold, absence of flash colour on the posterior surfaces of thighs, hidden portions of shanks and groin, and large vocal sac. Scinax lutzorum sp. nov. differs from S. fuscomarginatus, S. parkeri and S. trilineatus by its slightly larger SVL; from Scinax fuscomarginatus and S. parkeri it differs by its more slender body; from Scinax fuscomarginatus and S. trilineatus the new species differs by its wider head and more protruding eyes; and it differs from Scinax parkeri and S. wandae by its shorter snout. Comments on the type specimens of S. fuscomarginatus are presented and a lectotype is designated for this species. Keywords: lectotype, new species, Scinax fuscomarginatus, Scinax lutzorum.

It differs from tadpoles of other species of Sphaenorhynchus in having a short spiracle, submarginal papillae, and alternating short and large marginal papillae in the oral disc. Some larval characteristics, like morphology and position of the nostrils, length of the spiracle, and size of the marginal papillae on the oral disc are discussed for tadpoles of other species of Sphaenorhynchus.

Although some studies have addressed the phylogenetic relationships of the genus with other hylids using a few exemplar species, its internal relationships remain poorly understood. In order to test its monophyly and the relationships among its species, we performed a total evidence phylogenetic analysis of sequences of three mitochondrial and three nuclear genes, and 193 phenotypic characters from all species of Sphaenorhynchus.

In this study, we searched for ‘‘hot spots’’ of amphibians in these two regions and assessed whether the priority areas established by the MMA coincided with those suitable for amphibian conservation. We determined amphibian hot spots by means of three estimates: areas of endemism, areas of high species richness, and areas with species that are threatened, rare, or have very limited distributions. We then assessed the degree of coincidence between amphibian hot spots and the priority areas of the MMA based on the current conservation units. We analyzed areas of endemism with the use of a parsimony analysis of endemicity (PAE) on quadrats. The Caatinga biome and semiarid region showed four and six areas of endemism, respectively, mainly associated with mountainous areas that are covered by isolated forests and positively correlated with species richness.

Anuran amphibians in state of Paraná, southern Brazil. Biota Neotropica. 18(3): e20170322. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/1676-0611-BN-2017-0322 Abstract: The state of Paraná, located in southern Brazil, was originally covered almost entirely by the Atlantic Forest biome, with some areas of Cerrado savanna. In the present day, little of this natural vegetation remains, mostly remnants of Atlantic Forest located in the coastal zone. While some data are available on the anurans of the state of Paraná, no complete list has yet been published, which may hamper the understanding of its potential anuran diversity and limit the development of adequate conservation measures. To rectify this situation, we elaborated a list of the anuran species that occur in state of Paraná, based on records obtained from published sources. We recorded a total of 137 anuran species, distributed in 13 families. Nineteen of these species are endemic to the state of Paraná and five are included in the red lists of the state of Paraná, Brazil and/or the IUCN.
