heat exchange rate of the montane lizard Lacerta monticola. The results obtained by these …

Tail loss reduces mating success in the Iberian rock-lizard, Lacerta monticola

J Martin, A Salvador - Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 1993 - Springer
Many lizards autotomize their tails to escape when grasped by a predator. It is hypothesized
that tail loss causes a reduction in social status, thereby potentially lowering their …

Loss of mating opportunities influences refuge use in the Iberian rock lizard, Lacerta monticola

J Martín, P López, WE Cooper - Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 2003 - Springer
Because time spent in refuge may be costly if prey lose opportunities to forage, fight, or
mate, prey allow predators to approach closer before beginning to flee when opportunity …

Wide home ranges for widely foraging lizards

D Verwaijen, R Van Damme - Zoology, 2008 - Elsevier
Space usage by animals may be influenced by a range of factors. In this study we
investigate whether foraging behaviour affects the home range size of lizards. Two distinct …

Effects of tail loss on the time-budgets, movements, and spacing patterns of Iberian rock lizards, Lacerta monticola

J Martín, A Salvador - Herpetologica, 1997 - JSTOR
Many lizards use caudal autotomy as an antipredatory strategy. We experimentally
examined the effect of tail loss on the time-budgets, movement patterns, and home range …

Mate guarding, intrasexual competition and mating success in males of the non-territorial lizard Lacerta schreiberi

A Marco, V Pérez-Mellado - Ethology Ecology & Evolution, 1999 - Taylor & Francis
Schreiber's green lizard Lacerta schreiberi showed a high degree of overlap in individual
home ranges which the males did not actively defend. The number of mates and estimated …
