棘腹蛙生物学特性及资源保护研究进展

棘腹蛙(Quasipaaboulengeri)是无尾目(Anura)叉舌蛙科(Dicroglossidae)棘胸蛙属的两栖动物。因其以农业和森林害虫为食且对生存环境要求高的特点,故有保护和监测环境的生态功能。但由于生态环境恶化和过度捕捉等原因,造成野生棘腹蛙数量急剧下降,被《中国脊椎动物红色名录》列为易危种。本文从棘腹蛙的习性、生存环境特征、系统进化、人工养殖和资源保护等方面进行了综述,为进一步研究棘腹蛙提供基础资料和理论依据。

Research Progress on the Biological Characteristics and Resource Conservation of Quasipaa boulengeri

Quasipaa boulengeri is the amphibian of Anura, Dicroglossidae. Due to the characteristics of eating the pests of agriculture and forest as well as its demand on high environment quality, this species has been protected and also using as indicator species on the environment quality. However, its population size decreased sharply due to the both of ecological environment deterioration and over used by human beings. This species has been listed as the "vulnerable" species by the Red List of China’s Vertebrates. In this paper, we overviewed its survival situations based on its habit requirement, phylogenetic analysis, artificial breeding and reproduction, as well as its conservation to provide the basic data and theoretical basis for further study on this frog species.
