Directionality of the lizard ear [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2005
SUMMARYLizards have highly sensitive ears, but most lizard heads are small (1-2 cm in diameter) compared to the wavelengths of sound of frequencies to which they are most sensitive (1-4 kHz, wavelengths 34-8.5 cm). Therefore, the main cues to sound direction that mammals use - binaural time and intensity cues due to arrival-time differences and sound ...

Behaviour in Lizards [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1921
WE kept here this summer two common lizards (Lacerta vivipara), one a very active male, the other a female which was much less active because she was soon to give birth to a litter of young. One day I turned a batch of earwigs into the lizards' bowl, and a vigorous hunt ensued. When a lizard seizes any sort of prey it shakes it violently and repeatedly

Regeneration of the Epiphysis Including the Articular Cartilage in the Injured Knees of the Lizard Podarcis muralis

open access: yesJournal of Developmental Biology, 2015
Cartilage regeneration is massive during tail regeneration in lizards but little is known about cartilage regeneration in other body regions of the skeleton. The recovery capability of injured epiphyses of femur and tibia of lizard knees has been studied

Changes in capture rates and body size among vertebrate species occupying an insular urban habitat reserve

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, 2020
Long‐term ecological monitoring provides valuable and objective scientific information to inform management and decision‐making. In this article, we analyze 22 years of herpetofauna monitoring data from the Point Loma Ecological Conservation Area (PLECA),

Voice in Lizards [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1882
THE above heading in NATURE, vol. xxvi. p. 29, rather surprises me, as though voices in lizards were a recent discovery. The loud and plaintive “gui—gui—gui” made by the large land lizard of that name, has been well known to me for the last seventeen years, and is of course well known to every Assamese.

THE ECOLOGICAL CONSEQUENCES OF HABITAT AND MICROHABITAT USE IN LIZARDS:: A REVIEW [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We review the ecological consequences of habitat and microhabitat use in lizards. Different habitats have different biotic and abiotic properties and thus are likely to have different consequences for the lizards that occur in them.

Song of the Lizard [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1881
ANY one who has been in the South of Europe in the summer may have often heard a peculiar sound in the fields or amongst low herbage. The sound is like wheet-t'wheet repeated two or three times at short intervals. I have often been puzzled as to what animal it proceeded from, and should have supposed it to be some orthopterous insect, but that on ...
