Von Bertalanffy growth curves for males (closed square, black line) and females (empty circle, dotted line) in the analysed population of Mantidactylus grandidieri from a rainforest patch close to Vevembe (South East Madagascar). Open triangles were used for juveniles. The empty square represents the frog mean SVL at metamorphosis (here set to 16 mm). On the inset is a picture of an adult Mantidactylus grandidieri from the studied population. Growth parameters are reported in the text.
