How frogs’ superpowers may have led to life on land
July 31, 2024
Frogs lay eggs both in the water and in jelly-like masses on plants. Could their flexible behavior help explain how vertebrates moved from life in ocean to life on land?
And… action!
The benefits of small-scale plantations for mammal species in mixed landscapes (Webinar in Spanish)
November 08, 2024
The importance of timber plantations as corridors or shelter for mammals.
Food Calls
Hungry bats: Listen up
February 11, 2025
Spix’s disc-winged bats shrieked when they were first shown mealworms, a new food for them. Were they alarmed, or were they communicating their excitement to their fellow bats?
Caterpillar-like baby hummingbird
Potential caterpillar mimicry in White-necked Jacobin chicks discovered in Panama.
March 18, 2025
A baby hummingbird hatches. But it has fluffy feathers on its back, looking just like a dangerous caterpillar. Could this be something unusual among hummingbirds?
To eat or not to eat
Palatable versus poisonous: Eavesdropping bats must learn to identify which prey is safe to eat
April 30, 2025
Data collected on juvenile and adult fringe-lipped bats reveal the first clues into the development of eavesdropping behavior in predators
Living Small in a Big City
Túngara frog tadpoles that grew up in the city developed faster but ended up being smaller.
June 30, 2025
Have you ever wondered how city life affects animals like frogs? A new study reveals that urban Túngara frog tadpoles develop faster —but end up being smaller — than tadpoles from forests, probably resulting in smaller adults. This might be an adaptation to warmer urban puddles with fewer predators or to constantly changing environmental conditions in the city.

STRI Director Josh Tewksbury’s Remarks on Harassment
December 23, 2021
We are all working together to make tropical biology research safe for everyone by eliminating harassment.
Scientist
Rachel Collin
In the Collin Lab we work to understand how environmental conditions, their natural variation and environmental change from the climate emergency shape marine ecosystems and biodiversity. Our current work focuses on three areas (1) Documenting the biodiversity of tropical marine invertebrates, (...
Scientist
Owen McMillan
I am broadly interested in the genetics of adaptation and speciation. How do new species form? How does adaptive variation arise and spread? How is morphological variation created through development and modified by natural selection? Is evolution predictable?
The focus of my lab’s...
