Climate-Related Variation in Body Dimensions within Four Lacertid Species
International Journal of Zoology, 2014 A close relationship between habitat and external morphology is widespread among many animals, including reptiles. Here, I studied the relationship between abiotic environmental conditions and body size of four lacertid species (Phoenicolacerta laevis ...

Predicting habitat suitability of the critically endangered Be'er Sheva fringe-fingered lizard. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe used species distribution models to map the distribution and habitat requirements of the endemic and critically endangered Be'er Sheva fringe‐fingered lizard (Acanthodactylus beershebensis). The size of the potentially suitable area within the species historical range is 1350.73 km2.

Overlooked species diversity in the hyper‐arid Sahara Desert unveiled by dryland‐adapted lizards
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 50, Issue 1, Page 101-115, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Aim Hyper‐arid sandy and rocky fields rank among the least biologically diverse habitats of the desert biome, yet knowledge of local biodiversity patterns is also extremely poor. In the Sahara Desert, palaeoclimate oscillations affected the extent of hyper‐arid habitats, but it is unclear how these dynamics determined the evolution and ...
