Petals in the diet of savanna lizards [PDF]
We recorded Chamaecrista petals from the stomachs of three lizards of two species (Cnemidophorus lemniscatus, Ameiva ameiva) in an Amazonian savanna. The petals completely filled the stomachs of the lizards, so they were not ingested incidentally.

A new protocol for investigating visual two‑choice discrimination learning in lizards [PDF]
One of the most widely studied abilities in lizards is discrimination learning. The protocols used to test lizards are often novel or adapted from other taxa without proper validation.

Evolutionary Ecology of Lizards [PDF]
Except for latitudinal and elevational extremes, lizards range across a vast variety of biotopes worldwide, including environments as disparate as deserts, prairies, temperate woodlands, rainforests, or anthropic habitats. Although most species thrive on

Integration of Bayesian molecular clock methods and fossil-based soft bounds reveals early Cenozoic origin of African lacertid lizards [PDF]
Background Although current molecular clock methods offer greater flexibility in modelling historical evolutionary events, calibration of the clock with dates from the fossil record is still problematic for many groups.

Candidatus Cryptoplasma Associated with Green Lizards and Ixodes ricinus Ticks, Slovakia, 2004–2011
During 2004–2011, we collected green lizards and Ixodes ricinus ticks in Slovak Karst National Park in Slovakia; 90% (36/40) of lizards and 37% of ticks removed from lizards were infected with family Anaplasmataceae bacteria. Only Candidatus Cryptoplasma
