Amphibian metabolism (RMR or SMR):

  Amphibian metabolic rates are not as widely studied as those of other vertebrate classes.


• Feder examined the effects of lunglessness on metabolism in salamanders.

   Feder ME (1976), Physiological Zoology 49:398-406


• Hutchison et al. examined the effects of size and surface area on metabolism in frogs.

  Hutchinson VH, Whitford WG, Kohl M (1968), Physiological Zoology 41:68-85


• White et al. performed a broad-scale phylogenetically aware analysis of vertebrate taxa, including amphibians.
