Six new Cyrtodactylus (Squamata: Gekkonidae) from northeast India.
We use mitochondrial sequence data to identify divergent lineages within the gekkonid genus Cyrtodactylus in northeast India and use morphological data to describe six new species from within the Indo-Burma clade of Cyrtodactylus.

Lizards and amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) from the middle Eocene of Mazaterón (Soria, Spain)
Abstract The assemblage of lizards and amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) from the middle Eocene locality of Mazaterón (Spain) is described. Considering the rather limited material available for the study, the assemblage shows a moderate diversity with eight taxa corresponding to five different families.

Range‐Wide Assessment of the Tasmanian Devil Gut Microbiome
We conducted a comprehensive assessment of gut microbiomes at 10 locations across Tasmania, utilizing molecular methods such as 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing and diet metabarcoding to investigate the influences of diet, location, sex, and age. Contrary to the prevailing notion that diet is a main driver of gut microbiome differences, we found that ...

Seasonality plays a crucial role for many species, especially reptiles. We tested whether the tuatara, an endemic New Zealand reptile and the sole extant member of the order Rhynchocephalia, maintains a stable gut microbiota over 2 years of sampling across three seasons (summer, autumn and spring) or if the dominant bacterial community varies with ...

Tempo and mode of performance evolution across multiple independent origins of adhesive toe pads in lizards [PDF]
Understanding macroevolutionary dynamics of trait evolution is an important endeavor in evolutionary biology. Ecological opportunity can liberate a trait as it diversifies through trait space, while genetic and selective constraints can limit ...
