Potential distribution of endemic lizards from Brazilian restingas: The present announcing the end

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2024.
We evaluated the current and future potential distribution of the endemic lizards from Brazilian restingas and hypothesize that the ENMs will indicate alterations in the potential distribution of the restinga‐endemic lizards. Our models are robust enough to explain the suitable climatic zones for the occurrence of the studied species.

Trends in Reptile Holdings Across UK Zoos: Identification of the Factors Responsible for Declining Numbers of Venomous Snake

open access: yesZoo Biology, Volume 43, Issue 6, Page 556-569, November/December 2024.
In this study, we describe the trends in reptile holdings across UK zoos. Our results show that despite an overall increase in reptile numbers, there has been a dramatic decline in the number of venomous snakes being kept at UK zoos, and, as a consequence, venomous snakes are being excluded from many of the conservation benefits that zoos provide ...

Peering into the unknown world of amphisbaenians (Squamata, Amphisbaenia): A summary of the life history of Amphisbaena alba

open access: yesActa Zoologica, Volume 105, Issue 4, Page 539-550, October 2024.
Abstract Capturing data on the life of fossorial vertebrates is difficult since access to the subterranean environment is made unfeasible by its density and opacity. Collecting specimens is only possible through excavation work, causing damage or even death to the specimens.
