		Species of the genus Rana are the only ranids found in the Americas or Australia; most of the family's diversity is in the old world.
		The European Rana esculenta is a hybridogenetic form that, in some populations, exhibits a modified form of cyclical parthenogenesis, in which sexual generations alternate with asexual ones.
		Research on several species of Rana also form the basis for much that is known of amphibian biology, as well as providing edible legs to generations of gourmands.

		Accordingly, "India Rana tigerina and Rana hexadactyla" should be deleted from paragraph 3 of Notification to the Parties No. 800, to reflect the fact that the Standing Committee's recommendation to suspend imports no longer applies.
		However, as India does not permit export of specimens of these species, the Parties should continue not to permit imports of such specimens from this country and are requested to inform the Secretariat of any attempt to import such specimens.

		Data on muscle function during feeding in larval Rana catesbeiana indicate that several muscles appear to be primarily feeding muscles (e.g., levator mandibulae group) whereas others appear to be have multiple functions (e.g.
		Many of the "feeding" muscles are associated with regions of the chodrocranium that are variable in shape both ontogenetically and interspecifically.
		Integration of developmental data for Rana sylvatica with that collected for five additional species of Rana indicates a direct link between ontogeny, morphology, and phylogeny.

		Andreas Schmitz, Patrick Mausfeld, and Dirk Embert (2004 Hamadryad 28(1—2): 73-89) analyzed molecular data to demonstrate that the lizard genus Neoseps (family Scincidae) should be synonymized with the genus Eumeces.

		The American species of [the genus] Rana are not monophyletic; the western North American Amerana is more closely related to the R. temporaria group of Eurasia (together, these frogs form the group Laurasiarana).
