ability of bronze frog Rana temporalis tadpoles (pure or mixed parental lines) to assess the profitability of food habitats and distribute themselves accordingly was tested experimentally using a rectangular choice tank with a non-continuous input design. Food (boiled spinach) was placed at two opposite ends of the choice tank in a desired ratio (1 : 1‚ 1 : 2 or 1 : 4) to create habitat A and B. The tadpoles in Gosner stage 28–33‚ pre-starved for 24 h‚ were introduced in an open ended mesh cylinder
