Atelopus pachydermus and mean "thick skin". Common name Schmidt's stubfoot toad has been coined for this species, in reference to Eduard Oscar Schmidt who described the species. An alternative common name is Oyacachi jambato toad. Adult males measure and adult females, based on two specimens only, in snout–vent length. The snout is acuminate. The tympanic membrane is absent. The fingers have no webbing whereas the toes are webbed. The dorsum is covered by widely scattered or dense well-defined, rounded warts. The dorsum is yellow and has a dark brown pattern of marks, blotches and/or lines. The venter is white, sometimes orange or
Plasma membrane transformation they do in rats and mice, after which they return (within the next 48 h) to form the interface of the mature placenta. Moreover, as we have also seen, there are molecular alterations in the plasma membrane during early pregnancy which have common aspects across species and here some of the large mucin molecules (such as MUC-1) are particularly instructive. Changes in the basal and lateral plasma membrane regions have also been documented in many species during early pregnancy in preparation for attachment, and these too show common aspects across species—especially some membrane junctional structures. Therefore, to highlight that membrane
