XXXA adult POPSUR 1233 individuals <strong>of</strong> 10 species <strong>of</strong> urodeles,<br />

139 individuals <strong>of</strong> 6 species <strong>of</strong> anurans.<br />

Overall density across all forest types was<br />

0.41/m ² (urodeles, 0.37/m ²; anurans, 0.04/m<br />

²).<br />

XXXA all stages POPSUR The pH levels encountered were generally<br />

not toxic to the resident amphibians. A<br />

direct relationship <strong>of</strong> amphibian species<br />

richness with pond size was found. Only<br />

larger ponds were long-lived enough for<br />

metamorphosis <strong>of</strong> amphibian larvae.<br />
