Structural organization of the cerebral cortex of the neotropical lizard Tropidurus hispidus
Cell and Tissue Research, 2010Lizards belonging to the Tropiduridae family are "sit-and-wait" foragers, relying mainly on visual identification to catch prey that cross their visual fields. Little is known about the neurobiology of Tropiduridae lizards. We have used neurohistological techniques to study the structural organization of the telencephalon of the neotropical lizard ...

Divergences in ecological niche dimensions favor the coexistence of species in syntopy. Supposedly, closely related species face stronger pressures to differ in dimensions of niches. Integration among temporal, spatial and thermal niche dimensions is relevant for lizards because it allows proper regulation of body temperatures, which has consequences ...

Postnatal neurogenesis in the medial cortex of the tropical lizard Tropidurus hispidus
Neuroscience, 2005Young, adult and presumed old specimens of the tropical lizard Tropidurus hispidus, living in an almost steady warm habitat, have been the subjects of a 5-bromodeoxiuridine immunocytochemical study to label proliferating brain cells. All animals showed abundant 5-bromodeoxiuridine-labeled nuclei in the ependyma of their telencephalic lateral ventricles,

Parasitology Research, 2014
Parasites are natural regulators of their host populations. Despite this, little is known about variations in parasite composition (spatially or temporally) in environments subjected to water-related periodic stress such as the arid and semiarid regions. The objective of this study was to evaluate the spatial-temporal variation in endoparasite species'

Insights on the sleep ecology of Tropidurus hispidus (Spix, 1825) (Squamata: Tropiduridae)
The Herpetological JournalWe report preliminary data on the sleep ecology of Tropidurus hispidus (Tropiduridae) lizards based on six observations of sleeping lizards in natural settings, and highlight how standard monitoring techniques can be useful to study lizard sleep behaviour.

a b s t r a c t The reptiles are the animal species most often used in traditional medicine. Tropidurus hispidus and ameiva ameiva are two species of lizards utilized as medicines in zootherapic practice in Brazilian semiarid region. In this work, we evaluated the antimicrobial activity of extracts of the skin of Ameiva ameiva (MEAA) and T.

AbstractAmong the forms of anthropogenic disturbance, agricultural land use is one of the main threats to biodiversity. Understanding how interactions between parasites and hosts are affected by agricultural land use allows predictions of how these anthropogenic impacts affect parasites.

Behavioural ecology ofTropidurus hispiduson isolated rock outcrops in Amazonia
Journal of Tropical Ecology, 1996ABSTRACTA population of the tropical lizardTropidurus hispidus, isolated on a granitic rock outcrop in tropical forest of northern Brazil, was studied during the 1993 wet season. Four types of observational studies revealed that lizards are active throughout most of the day. During 10-minute intervals, individual lizards moved five times for an average
