The paper identifies acetylcholine as a key mediator of hatching enzyme release in red-eyed treefrog embryos, revealing conserved neural mechanisms across amphibians.

This study shows red-eyed treefrog embryos use vibration amplitude and modulation to refine hatching decisions, with response thresholds decreasing as they age.

The paper shows red-eyed treefrog embryos use both lateral line and vestibular systems to detect predator disturbance cues and trigger hatching.

This study investigates how red-eyed treefrog embryos detect motion during predator attacks and finds that vestibular mechanoreception is crucial for escape-hatching behavior.
