Genomic Diversity of the Endangered Guinan Toad‐Headed Lizard and Its Conservation Implications
We produced HiFi long reads and assembled a high‐quality genome for the Guinan toad‐headed lizard—Phrynocephalus guinanensis—and present a comprehensive conservation genomics assessment. Our findings clearly show population structure, a reduced genetic diversity pattern, and a strong bottleneck in demographic history, reaffirming the endangered status ...

Physiological responses of Lizard, Toad and Pigeon during rainy season in tropical savanna climate
Background This study investigated the adaptation mechanisms of Pigeons, Toads and Lizards during the rainy season in tropical savanna climates. Male Agama Lizards (Agama agama), Afep Pigeons (Columba unicincta) and Toads (Sclerophrys perreti) were ...

Predicting Mammal Species Suitable for Chagas Disease Spread Using a Machine‐Learning Framework
Chagas disease is maintained in wildlife by Trypanosoma cruzi cycling among many mammal species, but we still do not know the full range of potential hosts. Using machine learning and ecological/behavioral traits, we found that kissing bugs overlap with 573 mammal species and tend to feed on mammals that are den‐dwelling, medium‐to‐large in size, and ...

Temperature differentially impacts evaporative water loss in sympatric congeners (genus Crotalus). At the highest temperature the species with the broadest distribution in terms of range and habitat variability had significantly higher evaporative water loss than other species.

Rapid assessment of the delayed impacts of fires on endangered species is essential for accurately guiding conservation efforts. After the fire, surviving Hermann's tortoises (Testudo hermanni) showed only minor behavior alterations, and burnt habitats continued to provide them with essential resources.

Disturbance from fire mediates a potential ecophysiological trade‐off between adult performance and juvenile recruitment in the microendemic lizard Ameivula jalapensis. While open, burned habitats enhance adult thermoregulation and condition, unburned patches remain critical for juvenile thermal optima.
