FAMILY TEIIDAE Gray 1827, 55 (4 genera, 6 species) Ameiva Meyer 1795, 27 (1 species) Ameiva fuliginosa (Cope 1892, 132). McCranie & Gotte (2014) provided a taxonomic and systematic study of this species and corrected the previous misapplication of this species to A. ameiva (Linnaeus 1758 [p. 202]). Solís et al. (2014) “mistyped” 1978 for Linnaeus 1758.

Anguimorpha as a model group for studying the comparative heart morphology among Lepidosauria: Evolutionary window on the ventricular septation. [PDF]
All lepidosaurians have ventricles composed of the compact layer as well as the trabeculae. Proportion between compact wall and trabeculae differs among squamates in correlation with their physiological needs and ecological niche. Phylogeny and ecological niche are reflected on heart morphology in the group Anguimorpha.

Colonization of North America Boosted the Diversification of Whiptail Lizards. [PDF]
Teiids increased their diversification rates upon colonization of North America, which was associated with an ecological niche expansion toward drier areas. This increment in diversification was not shown to be associated with phenotypic traits, which suggests it was due to ecological opportunity and/or ecological release.

Environmental and morphological drivers of mutualistic plant–lizard interactions: a global review
Plant–lizard interactions are still poorly studied, despite lizards are known to interact with flowering plants in many parts of the world. They are commonly reported on islands although the number of documented interactions has also increased in mainland, mostly in isolated environments.
