We review the ecological consequences of habitat and microhabitat use in lizards. Different
habitats have different biotic and abiotic properties and thus are likely to have different …

Although the relationship between dietary and phenotypic specialization has been well
documented for many vertebrate groups, it has been stated that few such general trends can …

Nous avons étudié la thermorégulation et l'utilisation de l'habitat chez deux lézards
sympatriques de la famille des Phrynosomatidae (Uta stansburiana et Sceloporus …

Climate change is rapidly altering the way current species interact with their environment to
satisfy life-history demands. In areas anticipated to experience extreme warming, rising …

1. A replicated experiment tested the null hypothesis that stand-alone electronic temperature
recording devices produce sets of operative temperatures similar to those produced using …

We made quantitative field observations of 16 species of American lizards to characterize
foraging movements and modes. Consistent with previous qualitative assessments and …

Consumption of the whole or part of a reptile's own shed skin or that of a conspecific
(keratophagy) has been documented in 248 species of lizards in 16 families and 19 snakes …

One useful theoretical focus in evolutionary ecology that may advance us toward an
integrative understanding of the major features of adaptedness of any population or species …

The spatial distribution of a population of lizards is influenced by the distribution of resources
and the individuals' skills to gain access to them. On several Mediterranean islands with …

This study compared the resource use of juvenile zoo-living Chinese crocodile lizards,
Shinisaurus crocodilurus crocodilurus across three observation windows, spanning nine …
