Research on the thermal ecology and physiology of free‐living organisms is accelerating as
scientists and managers recognize the urgency of the global biodiversity crisis brought on by …

Wound healing is a fundamental evolutionary adaptation with two possible outcomes: scar
formation or reparative regeneration. Scars participate in re-forming the barrier with the …

Urbanization is an increasingly important dimension of global change, and urban areas
likely impose significant natural selection on the species that reside within them. Although …

CRISPR-Cas9-mediated gene editing has enabled the direct manipulation of gene function
in many species. However, the reproductive biology of reptiles presents unique barriers for …

This study provides a histological comparison of the mature regenerated and original tail of
the lizard Anolis carolinensis. These data will provide a framework for future studies of this …

Rapid technological improvements are democratizing access to high quality, chromosome-
scale genome assemblies. No longer the domain of only the most highly studied model …

Squamates constitute a major vertebrate radiation, representing almost one‐third of all
known amniotes. Although speciose and morphologically diverse, they remain poorly …

Aspects of global change result in warming temperatures that threaten biodiversity across
the planet. Eggs of non‐avian, oviparous reptiles (henceforth “reptiles”) are particularly …

Adaptive thermal tolerance plasticity can dampen the negative effects of warming. However,
our knowledge of tolerance plasticity is lacking for embryonic stages that are relatively …

Among the most specialized integumentary outgrowths in amniotes are the adhesive, scale-
like scansors and lamellae on the digits of anoles and geckos. Less well-known are …
