Abstract:
Uptake of noxious and toxic compounds from the diet and their subsequent concentration in integumentary glands is an important step in the defence strategy of many frog species. In this study we show that the Australian green tree frog, Litoria caerulea White, is capable of sequestering β-caryophyllene (a prominent component of the parotoid gland secretion of wild frogs), and most probably other terpenes, from its diet. Animals fed caryophyllene-dosed crickets rapidly acquired the compound in high quantities after only one feeding. Furthermore, dietary analysis of wild-caught animals identified a major source of caryophyllene (the spur-throated grasshopper) in the frogs' diet. Although the ecological significance of this uptake system has not been clarified, the presence of terpenes in the parotoid gland secretions of L. caerulea is interesting when viewed in terms of their wide spectrum of bioactivity and abundance in the environment.

Abstract:
Three related peptides, caeridins 1.1-1.3, have been isolated from the green tree frog Litoria gilleni. Caeridins 1.1 and 1.2 are dodecapeptides differing only in having α and β Asp at residue 4 [viz. Gly Leu Leu Asp Gly Leu Leu Gly Thr Leu Gly Leu (NH2)]. Caeridin 1.3 is the corresponding cyclic amino succinyl derivative derived formally by cyclization of Asp(4) and Gly (5). Hydrolysis of caeridin 1.3 yields caeridin 1.1 and 1.2 in the ratio 3:1. This constitutes a rare case of the isolation of three such related peptides from a natural system.

Abstract:
The Fringed Tree Frog (Litoria eucnemis) is closely related to the Tree Frog Litoria genimaculata. Both species are found in northern Australia and New Guinea. We have reported that the major antibiotic peptide of L. genimaculata is maculatin 1.1 which has the sequence GLFGVLAKVAAHVVPAIEHF-NH2, and that this basic peptide is different from the hinged caerin 1 peptides (e.g. caerin 1.1, from Litoria splendida and other green tree frogs, which has the sequence GLLSVLGSVAKHVLPHVVPVIAEHL-NH2), in that it lacks four residues of the central hinge region of a caerin 1. Litoria eucnemis has three major host defence peptides, two of these are maculatins (e.g. maculatin 1.3; GLLGLLGSVVSHVVPAIVGHF-NH2) which are related in sequence to that of maculatin 1. The other antibiotic peptide is caerin 1.11 (GLLGAMFKVASKVLPHVVPAITEHF-NH2) a peptide related to the caerin 1 peptides of the green tree frogs of Australia. L. eucnemis is the only species of the Litoria genus (that we have studied) which contains both maculatin and caerin peptides in its skin secretion. The three antibiotic peptides of Litoria eucnemis are significantly less active than maculatin 1.1 and other caerins 1 isolated from anurans of the genus Litoria so far studied.

Abstract:
Australia and New Guinea (together referred to as Sahul) were linked by land for much of the late Tertiary and share many biotic elements. However, New Guinea is dominated by rainforest, and northern Australia by savannah. Resolving patterns of biotic interchange between these two regions is critical to understanding the expansion and contraction of both habitat types. The green tree frog (Litoria caerulea) has a vast range across northern and eastern Australia and New Guinea. An assessment of mitochondrial and morphological diversity in this nominal taxon in New Guinea reveals two taxa. True Litoria caerulea occurs in disjunct savannahs of the Trans-Fly, Central Province and across northern Australia, with very low genetic divergence, implying late Pleistocene connectivity. A previously unrecognised taxon is endemic to New Guinea and widespread in lowland swampy rainforest. Date estimates for the divergence of the new species suggest Pliocene connectivity across lowland tropical habitats of northern Australia and New Guinea. In contrast, the new species shows shallow phylogeographic structuring across the central mountains of New Guinea, implying recent dispersal between the northern and southern lowlands. These results emphasise that the extent and connectivity of lowland rainforest and savannah environments across northern Australia and southern New Guinea have undergone profound shifts since the late Pliocene. http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:A577A415-0B71-4663-B4C1-7271B97298CD

Abstract:
Determining the contribution of elevated ultraviolet-B radiation (UVBR; 280 – 315 nm) to amphibian population declines is being hindered by a lack of knowledge about how different acute UVBR exposure regimes during early life history stages might affect post-metamorphic stages via long-term carryover effects. We acutely exposed tadpoles of the Australian green tree frog (Litoria caerulea) to a combination of different UVBR irradiances and doses in a multi-factorial laboratory experiment, and then reared them to metamorphosis in the absence of UVBR to assess carryover effects in subsequent juvenile frogs. Dose and irradiance of acute UVBR exposure influenced carryover effects into metamorphosis in somewhat opposing manners. Higher doses of UVBR exposure in larvae yielded improved rates of metamorphosis. However, exposure at a high irradiance resulted in frogs metamorphosing smaller in size and in poorer condition than frogs exposed to low and medium irradiance UVBR as larvae. We also demonstrate some of the first empirical evidence of UVBR-induced telomere shortening in vivo, which is one possible mechanism for life-history trade-offs impacting condition post-metamorphosis. These findings contribute to our understanding of how acute UVBR exposure regimes in early life affect later life-history stages, which has implications for how this stressor may shape population dynamics.

Abstract:
This thesis demonstrates that many frog species, when stressed or challenged, produce odours that are associated with the skin gland secretions, and that the source of these odours can vary. The role of many of these odorous compounds is still unknown. However, it would appear that some odorous compounds have a defensive function and are important components of the secretions.
