Phylogenetic analyses of novel squamate adenovirus sequences in wild-caught Anolis lizards. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Adenovirus infection has emerged as a serious threat to the health of captive snakes and lizards (i.e., squamates), but we know relatively little about this virus' range of possible hosts, pathogenicity, modes of transmission, and sources from nature. We

Does breeding season variation affect evolution of a sexual signaling trait in a tropical lizard clade?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Sexually selected traits can be expected to increase in importance when the period of sexual behavior is constrained, such as in seasonally restricted breeders.

A revision of the genus Audantia of Hispaniola with description of four new species (Reptilia: Squamata: Dactyloidae)

open access: yesNovitates Caribaea, 2019
We revise the species of Audantia, a genus of dactyloid lizards endemic to Hispaniola. Based on our analyses of morphological and genetic data we recognize 14 species in this genus, four of which we describe as new species (A. aridius sp.

Plasticity and evolutionary convergence in the locomotor skeleton of Greater Antillean Anolis lizards

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Plasticity can put evolution on repeat if development causes species to generate similar morphologies in similar environments. Anolis lizards offer the opportunity to put this role of developmental plasticity to the test.

Origins and biogeography of the Anolis crassulus subgroup (Squamata: Dactyloidae) in the highlands of Nuclear Central America

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2017
Background Recent studies have begun to reveal the complex evolutionary and biogeographic histories of mainland anoles in Central America, but the origins and relationships of many taxa remain poorly understood.

Anolis Daudin

open access: yes, 2010
Anolis (Daudin) Anolis (sensu lato) is the most specious genus among the reptiles, with circa 370 recognized species (Poe 2004). Within the genus two major groups of species called “alpha” and “beta” have been recognized (the latter composed of the subgenus Norops). Moreover, subgroups of species have also been defined within “alpha” and “beta” Anolis (

Factors affecting interspecific differences in genetic divergence among populations of Anolis lizards in Cuba

open access: yesZoological Letters, 2018
Background Geographical patterns and degrees of genetic divergence among populations differ between species, reflecting relative potentials for speciation or cladogenesis and differing capacities for environmental adaptation.
