WHILST quartered in St. Helena, at Ladder Hill, I was frequently disturbed by the “tweet-tweet” of a small lizard in the verandah and Melia trees which overshadowed it, which sounds for a long time I thought were produced by birds. It is, according to Melliss'description, the “Hemidactylus frenatus (Schleg.).—A small brown harmless lizard about four ...

Lizards play vital roles in extant ecosystems. However, their roles in extinct ecosystems are poorly understood because the fossil record of lizards consists mostly of isolated bones.

He calls it Beerbachite, and describes it on p. 219 as one of his Ganggesteine, among those von malchitischem Habitus, quoting an analysis.

Fixation of genetic variation and optimization of gene expression: The speed of evolution in isolated lizard populations undergoing Reverse Island Syndrome [PDF]
The ecological theory of island biogeography suggests that mainland populations should be more genetically divergent from those on large and distant islands rather than from those on small and close islets.

This work combines molecular dynamics and finite‐difference time‐domain computational approaches to study the photothermal properties of melanin nanoparticle–based supra‐assemblies. Based on the results of this study, the binary mixtures of melanin and silica with higher concentrations of melanin and with more segregated levels of mixing are able to ...
