Brazilian frog might be the first pollinating amphibian known to science

Nectar-loving tree frog likely moves pollen from flower to flower.

The creamy fruit and nectar-rich flowers of the milk fruit tree are irresistible to Xenohyla truncata, a tree frog native to Brazil. On warm nights, the dusky-colored frogs take to the trees en masse, jostling one another for a chance to nibble the fruit and slurp the nectar. In the process, the frogs become covered in sticky pollen grains—and might inadvertently pollinate the plants, too. It’s the first time a frog—or any amphibian—has been observed pollinating a plant, researchers reported last month in Food Webs...

With the latest episode of Dungeon Meshi/Delicious in Dungeon, I'd like to bring attention to another clever bit of worldbuilding.

We already know from the previous episode that the "tentacles" are animals, not plants, and in fact are explicitly cnidarians, as shown by their nematocysts/cnidocytes, or stinging cells.

In the real world, there are a number of small creatures that can live safely among the stinging tentacles of an anemone or jellyfish, and of these, the clownfish (also known as anemonefish) are the most well-known.

It is believed that the slimy coat of clownfish differs in some way from that of other fish so that it doesn't trigger the stinging cells, so as long as the clownfish's slime coat is intact, it is protected from stings.

Of course, clownfish are marine fish, so Ryoko Kui utilized a different slimy creature, an arboreal one that could clamber about in the stinging tentacles: giant tree frogs!

They're tree frogs because their toes have the sticky discs. I've never seen frog monsters utilized this way or in this ecological niche before, but in hindsight it is brilliant in its simplicity, and very appropriate.

And as an added reference, the frogs themselves are colored exactly like clownfish!
