  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Lithobates sylvaticus&lt;/i&gt; is the second most widely distributed anuran in North America (Martof and Humphries 1959. Am. Midl. Nat. 61:350–389), and its habitat use reflects the environmental variation that exists across its geographic range (Semlitsch et al. 2009. BioScience 59:853–862). Although &lt;i&gt;L. sylvaticus&lt;/i&gt; post-breeding habitat selection has been described in Missouri (Rittenhouse and Semlitsch 2007. J. Herpetol. 41:645–653) and Maine (Baldwin et al. 2006. J. Herpetol. 40:442–453; Blomquist and Hunter 2010. Ecoscience 17:251–264), these studies did not report the species’ use of glacial erratics, or boulders. We conducted our study in Maine’s Nahmakanta Public Reserved Land (45.68210°N, 69.12940°W, WGS84; 407–530 m elev.), which is located in the Quebec/New England Boundary Mountains ecoregion.&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
