Our newest paper detailing differences in #frog communities across land use type in #Borneo is out with interesting finds at individual-, population-, and community-levels! #FrogFriday #Sabah authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti…
Excited to share our new paper describing 4 new species of #Amolops from #Laos, #Vietnam, & #Thailand. A really cryptic group that required #tadpoles to delimit some species. Big thanks to multiple #museums for providing specimens & tissues! #FrogFriday vertebrate-zoology.arphahub.…
Ginger flower, tiger orchid, and Nepenthes last week at #Sepilok with NatGeo—! #ILovePlants
Tonite's the night! "Night Life" themed After Dark at @CarnegieMNH --with a featured speaker chatting about what it's like to work in the jungle at night. Be sure to stop by the herp table to try your hand at matching the frog to its call!

Not many places have amazing customer service, but @PrincetonTec for the WIN! My last batch of headlamps all broke and they replaced them super fast. Can’t wait to try out these sleek new ones on my next #frog survey!
Ssssssaturdays are for sssss #snakes! Like this tiny Psammodynastes from the #CrockerRange #Sabah #Borneo. So cute!

Rhacophorus harrissoni from last night’s walk at #Danum! I love it here... #TreeFrogs #Sabah #Borneo
One highlight from Mahua last week: glow in the dark trilobite #beetle! Always so fun to see anything glow in the dark! #CrockerRange #Sabah #Borneo
That’s a wrap on #CallRecording #Sabah 2023! Lots of amazing data to explore in the coming months, incl the call of this Meristogenys. Stay tuned for fun findings! #Borneo #frogs
What’s the best thing about rainy nights in #Sabah? All the #Megophrys start calling! It’s like honking banshees, and I’m here for it. #Borneo #Fieldwork #Frogs #FrogCalls
Love getting to see #Rafflesia! My first time seeing R. pricei here in Tambunan—complete with a visit by its pollinator! #Sabah #Borneo
Super quiet night at Mahua in the #CrockerRange, but still managed to see 2 sp of Ansonia, Rhacophorus angulrostris, Staurois tuberilinguis, and a Popeia sabahi #pitviper! Not bad for a dry night! #Fieldwork #Sabah #Borneo #frogs #toads
So happy to be waking up in one of my favorite places... I love tambunan!!!!! #Sabah #Borneo #HomeAwayFromHome
48 hrs after leaving my house, I finally made it to my field site! Capped off this #FrogFriday by recording calls of Huia and two sp of Meristogenys. Stay tuned for exciting findings!! #Sabah #CrockerRange #Mahua #Borneo #FrogCalls
Excited that in one week I’ll be back in #Borneo to record the #Ultrasonic calls of Huia cavitympanum. Can’t wait to not hear them once again! #Sabah #FrogFriday
Is there anything better than selfies with angry-looking baby#Megophrys nasuta? #FrogFriday #ForeverInLove #Sabah #Borneo
