Synonyms for some species of Mexican anoles (Squamata: Dactyloidae)

Zootaxa, 2013
We studied type material and freshly collected topotypical specimens to assess the taxonomic status of five names asso-ciated with species of Mexican Anolis. We find A. schmidti to be a junior synonym of A. nebulosus, A. breedlovei to be a junior synonym of A. cuprinus, A. polyrhachis to be a junior synonym of A. rubiginosus, A. simmonsi to be a junior

New insights into sex chromosome evolution in anole lizards (Reptilia, Dactyloidae)

Chromosoma, 2016
Anoles are a clade of iguanian lizards that underwent an extensive radiation between 125 and 65 million years ago. Their karyotypes show wide variation in diploid number spanning from 26 (Anolis evermanni) to 44 (A. insolitus). This chromosomal variation involves their sex chromosomes, ranging from simple systems (XX/XY), with heterochromosomes ...

TESTING BERGMANN'S RULE IN THE WIDESPREAD MEXICAN LIZARD ANOLIS NEBULOSUS (SQUAMATA: DACTYLOIDAE)

The Southwestern Naturalist, 2021
Bergmann's rule predicts an inverse relationship between body size and environmental temperature in endotherms. The larger the organism, the lower the rate of heat loss by radiation; thus, larger organisms should be more likely to survive in colder places. This relationship is less clear in ectotherms.

Geometric morphometry of populations of Anolis tropidonotus (Peters 1863, Squamata: Dactyloidae) of contrasting hábitats

Agro Productividad, 2023
ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the variation in the shape and size of two populations of A. tropidonotus from two habitats with contrasting vegetation and environmental characteristics. Design/methodology/approach: 26 specimens of A. tropidonotus were collected and photographed and using the TPSdig 2 program, three type I landmarks, eight type II ...

Anolis boulengerianus Thominot, 1887, a senior synonym of Anolis isthmicus Fitch, 1978 (Squamata: Dactyloidae)

Zootaxa, 2014
For most of its history, the name Anolis boulengerianus Thominot, 1887 has been regarded as a junior synonym of Anolis nebulosus (Wiegmann, 1834) or Anolis nebuloides Bocourt, 1873. However, a comparison of the syntypes and additional topotypical specimens of A.

Dactyloidae Fitzinger 1843

2015
FAMILY DACTYLOIDAE Fitzinger 1843, 16 (2 genera, 40 species, 19 endemic species, 1 introduced species). McCranie & Köhler (2015) monographed 39 species of anoles occurring in Honduras. McCranie & Köhler were not aware of the publication reporting Norops wermuthi from Honduras until it was too late to add comments of substance to their work (July 2013 ...

Helminths associated withNorops fuscoauratus(Squamata, Dactyloidae) in highland marshes of the Brazilian semi-arid

Journal of Helminthology, 2020
AbstractHelminthological studies may contribute with valuable information on host biology and conservation. Herein, we provide new data on helminths infecting the lizardNorops fuscoauratus, testing one of the factors considered most important in parasitic ecology: host size. We analysed 25 specimens ofN.

Gastrointestinal Helminths of Ruthven's Anole, Anolis bonairensis (Squamata: Dactyloidae), from Bonaire, Netherlands Antilles

Comparative Parasitology, 2019
Twenty-three dactyloid anoles (Ruthven's anole, Anolis bonairensis) from Bonaire, Netherlands Antilles, were examined for gastrointestinal helminths. Four species of Nematoda were found: Parapharyngodon cubensis, Oswal-docruzia lenteixeirai, Spauligodon bonairensis, and Acuariidae gen. sp. (larva in cyst). Acuariidae gen. sp.

Anolis marsupialis Taylor 1956, a valid species from southern Pacific Costa Rica (Reptilia, Squamata, Dactyloidae)

Zootaxa, 2015
The examination of the holotype of Anolis marsupialis Taylor 1956 along with recently collected specimens reveals that A. marsupialis is a valid species. It differs from its closest congeners A. humilis Peters 1863 and A. quaggulus Cope 1885, in male dewlap coloration, scalation, body size, and hemipenial morphology.
