Acta Herpetologica, 2011 Tail tip removal is a common method for obtaining tissue samples for genetics and other studies on lizards. This study evaluates the effect of tail tip autotomy on microhabitat selection in the lacertid Podarcis bocagei.

Dehydration constrains thermoregulation and space use in lizards
PLoS ONE, 2019 Climate change is negatively affecting many species. The increase in mean air temperature is often associated with shifts in distribution, changes in phenology, and local extinctions. Other factors that only partially correlate with air temperature, like

Fixation of genetic variation and optimization of gene expression: The speed of evolution in isolated lizard populations undergoing Reverse Island Syndrome [PDF]
, 2019 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.

Frugivory and Seed Dispersal by Lizards: A Global Review
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Birds and mammals are the only vertebrates which receive comprehensive attention in studies of dispersal of fleshy-fruited plant species. However, recently the importance of fleshy fruit in the diet of lizards (order Squamata: suborder Sauria), and the ...

Linking locomotor performance to morphological shifts in urban lizards
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2018 Urban habitats are drastically modified from their natural state, creating unique challenges and selection pressures for organisms that reside in them. We compared locomotor performance of Anolis lizards from urban and forest habitats on tracks differing
