Expert tag

The page had an {{expert}} tag, but I don't see any explanation on what was the reason or what is needed. If needed, please provide some info. --Ljvillanueva (talk) 06:42, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Global Warming

"global warming in the region accelerates evaporation, thus raising the air's capacity to hold water. The increased water vapor capacity subsequently enhances the cloud cover over the region, which influences surface temperatures" Is this saying that increases in temperature cause increased cloud cover which in turn cause decrease in temperature? I am not an expert on the subject, but from a layman point of view this argument is flawed. Matushorvath (talk) 09:20, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

• I agree with you, Matushorvath. If the sudden increases in temperature are causing more clouds to appear in the sky, wouldn't that mitigate the global warming and bring us down to colder temperatures? GVnayR (talk) 03:23, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
  • Here are a collection of journal articles studying effects of climate (change), ENSO, and possible connections to chytrid fungus outbreaks in amphibians. Although there are some conflicting conclusions, I recommend adding some of this sourced information to the article.

Cloud cover

If the cloud cover that is supposed to protect us from global warming is supposed to be good, how come it's causing a disease to become worse and killing all these amphibians in countries that used to be able to support them? GVnayR (talk) 04:17, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Archey's Frog

The article states that this frog is immune to infection, and later that this frog was cured. Incompatible statements... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.45.61.51 (talk) 04:27, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

Proposal to merge/incorporate sections from Batrachochytrium into this one.

Recent contributions needing improvement

I reverted recent additions that were factually correct and important information, but that need substantial improvements in tone (neutrality, encyclopedic rather than essay-like), formatting (italics, wikilinks), and referencing. The reverted version can be found here. Again, the information is crucially important, but it is not yet ready for Wikipedia standards. Assistance would be welcome. --Animalparty-- (talk) 17:53, 15 November 2013 (UTC)

Update: I have revised and restored much of the above information, feeling more content is better than less, but there is still room for additional cleanup, revision, and expansions.--Animalparty-- (talk) 05:44, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

Description

Hello @XeCyranium: This doesn't look redudant to me. There is no other mention of either hypha or zoospore morphology in the lede. In fact there is no other morphological information in the lede. Invasive Spices (talk) 9 February 2022 (UTC)

The sentence appeared to be an artifact from before the identification of the second species, hence the the lack of pluralization and second wiki link to fungus. A chytrid is a type of zoosporic non-hyphal fungus, so it's redundant to call them both. XeCyranium (talk) 01:29, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
