The discovery of predator-prey relationships are relevant to improve the knowledge regarding ecological processes, such as trophic ecology, mortality sources, and paths of fluxes of matter and energy in ecosystems. Snakes of the genus Siphlophis feed on mammals, birds, frogs, lizards, lizard eggs, and snakes, whereas Tropidurus hispidus lizards are ...

Cytogenetic study in the Brazilian semiarid lizard Tropidurus hispidus (Squamata, Tropiduridae)
Different classes of repetitive DNA sequences are found in eukaryotes, often composing substantial portions of the genome, associated with their important role in the structural and functional genome organization. In this work, we mapped repetitive DNA sequences (18S rDNA, microsatellites and telomeric motifs) in the karyotype of Tropidurus hispidus, a
