“…Gosner and Black (1957) were the first to report that acidic water was toxic to amphibian embryos, and that pH levels in the Pine IBarrens may be a limiting factor in the distribution of amphibian populations.…”

“…It has been reported that, in frogs, low pH (approximately 3.6-4.75) in ambient water interrupts embryonic development or produces abnormalities in the spine and tail of larvae (Gosner and Black, 1957;Freda andDunson, 1985, 1986;Tyler-Jones et al, 1989). This suggests that in the present study area B. japonica do not suffer high embryonic mortality or larval abnormality from low pH.…”

Oviposition sites of Buergeria japonica were surveyed in portions of two streams near the coast on Okinawa Island, Ryukyu Archipelago, Japan. Twenty-five and 52 oviposition sites were found. At all these sites the salinity was conthese portions to the sea breeze.The pH value at the sites, ranging from 7.7-10.2, never dropped into the acid range. There were no significant differences in water depth or distance from the bank at the oviposition sites between the two streams, despite the prominent differences in some topographic characters, such as maximum water depth and stream width.
