Janzen's hypothesis (JH) posits that low thermal variation selects for narrow physiological tolerances, and thus small species distributional ranges high turnover along tropical elevational gradients. Although this has been intensely revisited, it does not explain how many may exhibit broad distributions, encompassing altitudinal Moreover, the responses of remain largely unknown, limiting our understanding on they respond to climate variation. To fill these knowledge gaps, we tested a major component JH, variability (CVH), which predicts broader tolerance breadth (Tbr = CTmax - CTmin) with temperature Specifically, sampled populations five amphibian distributed in two mountain Brazil's Atlantic Forest test CTmin vary Since both water balance traits are pivotal evolutionary history amphibians, also measured rates dehydration rehydration their relations tolerances. We found increasing altitude did always lead Tbr, since changes were species-specific. In addition, show consistent altitude, correlations between hydric traits. While highland at lower risk stress than lowland counterparts, living far from upper limits. As consequence intraspecific spatial context-dependent heterogeneous. Together recent studies showing tolerances some amphibians comparable temperate taxa, findings highlight several conform predictions made by either CVH or other important hypotheses concerning This reinforces need overcome geographical bias data improve change impacts biodiversity.

Body temperature is universally recognized as a dominant driver of biological performance. Although the critical distinction between an organism and its surrounding habitat has long been recognized, it remains common practice to assume that trends in air temperature-collected via remote sensing or weather stations-are diagnostic animal thus spatiotemporal patterns physiological stress mortality risk. Here, by analysing long-term recorded biomimetic sensors designed emulate intertidal mussel across US Pacific Coast, we show maximal organismal ('organismal climatologies') during aerial exposure can differ substantially from those exhibited co-located environmental data products. Specifically, using linear regression compare (air temperature) climatologies, not only are magnitudes body markedly different, expected, but so their temporal at both local biogeographic scales, with some sites showing significant decadal-scale increases despite reductions temperature, vice versa. The idiosyncratic relationship temperatures suggests climatology cannot be statistically corrected serve accurate proxy for climatology. Finally, quantile regression, vary distribution extremes shifting different directions rates than average metrics. Overall, our results highlight importance quantifying changes entire better predict performance dispel notion raw 'corrected' (and specially climatologies used trends. Hence, widespread coverage availability, severe limitations suggest role conservation management policy should carefully considered.
