Epidermal scale growth, allometry and function in non‐avian dinosaurs and extant reptiles
Scale shapes in non‐avian dinosaurs and extant reptiles are mostly retained through growth. However, positive scale allometry and proportional differences in scale breadth are also detected, which are likely associated with changing body proportions. Based on their generally conserved morphology and impracticality for visual display, the enlarged size ...

Effect of Soil Properties on Species Richness of Fossorial Squamate Reptiles
ABSTRACT Aim Species richness varies greatly over geographic gradients. Climate and other above‐ground attributes are the most common variables used to explain animal richness patterns. However, soil properties may play an important role in shaping the richness of species living underground.

Complete mitochondrial genomes of Isospora amphiboluri and an unnamed Isospora sp. (Eimeriidae, Coccidia, Apicomplexa) were sequenced. These coccidia infect the bearded dragon, Pogona vitticeps (Sauria: Agamidae) and black-throated laughingthrush ...

The Meadow lizard (Darevskia praticola s.l.) is one of the more poorly-studied lizard species in Europe, and no detailed data on its diet is available. We investigated a total of 180 faecal samples of D. praticola s.l. from two locations in Bulgaria, and

The neodiapsid Thadeosaurus colcanapi from the upper Permian of Madagascar
Abstract The enigmatic neodiapsid Thadeosaurus colcanapi (Lower Sakamena Formation, southwestern Madagascar), sole species of the genus Thadeosaurus, is revised here. The attribution of 12 of the 21 referred specimens is confirmed, spanning all ontogenetic stages, and the anatomy of Thadeosaurus is redescribed in detail with comments on ontogenetical ...

Co‐occurrence in snake and lizard sister species is unrelated to major ecomorphological traits
Understanding how so many kinds of species coexist in a limited world has puzzled ecologists for more than a century. Our study examined this by looking at squamate sister species. We examined whether co‐occurring sisters have dissimilar niches to reduce competition or similar niches due to habitat constraints.
