Аннотация

Seasonal variation in the amount of fluid in the subcutaneous lymphatic sinuses of the common frog (Rana temporaria) and differences in the dynamics of its mass in adult males and females from autumn to spring are shown. The hypothesis that enlarged lymphatic sinuses (one of the elements of the “nuptial attire” of R. temporaria) can be used by small frogs to gain competitive advantages in assortative pair selection during reproduction is tested.

2. Fig. 1. Seasonal variability of lymph mass in the subcutaneous lymphatic sinuses (ML, g) and its relative mass (RMS, %) in females and males of the common frog. White boxplots – autumn, light gray – winter, dark gray – spring. The height of the boxplots – the boundaries of 25–75% of the values ​​in the sample, horizontal lines inside the boxplots – median values, the ends of the vertical “whiskers” – minimum and maximum values, dots – outliers. The ends of the brackets indicate the samples being compared; the significance of the differences is given above the brackets: * p ≤ 0.05, **** p < 0.0001, ns – no differences.

7. Fig. 6. Results of binomial logistic regression predicting the probability that small individuals of the common frog have a greater relative mass of fluid in the subcutaneous lymph sacs than large ones. The following were used as predictors: A – body length of males, B – body mass of males, C – body length of females, D – body mass of females. The black line is the regression, the gray band is the 95% confidence interval.
