Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results suggest that sexual dimorphism in thermal physiology can arise from phenotypic plasticity or sex-specific selection on traits that are linked to thermal tolerance, rather than from direct effects of thermal environments experienced by males and females.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correlated evolution of microhabitat, morphology, and behavior in West Indian Anolis lizards: a test of the habitat matrix model
TL;DR: This work combined data on undisturbed locomotion, habitat use, and morphology for 31 species of arboreal lizard in the genus Anolisand used these data to test nine specific predictions arising from the HMM, finding strong support for nearly all aspects of this model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Do differences in bite force and head morphology between a native and an introduced species of anole influence the outcome of species interactions
TL;DR: This study studied the recent invasion of the lizard Anolis cristatellus in Dominica, and revealed higher absolute bite forces of A. oculatus, ruling out the superior fighting ability hypothesis as a determinant for the establishment of the invasive species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Habitat structure mediates vulnerability to climate change through its effects on thermoregulatory behavior
Lauren K. Neel,Michael L. Logan,Michael L. Logan,Daniel J. Nicholson,Daniel J. Nicholson,Christina L. Miller,Albert K. Chung,Albert K. Chung,Inbar Maayan,Zach Degon,Madeline Dubois,John David Curlis,Quinn Taylor,Kaitlin M. Keegan,W. O. McMillan,Jonathan B. Losos,Christian L. Cox,Christian L. Cox +17 more
TL;DR: This article examined the thermal ecology and physiology of two lizard species that occupy distinct environments in the tropics and found that local habitat variation, through its effects on behavior and physiology, is a major determinant of vulnerability to climate change.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Ecomorphological Analysis of Native and Introduced Populations of the Endemic Lizard Anolis maynardi of the Cayman Islands
TL;DR: Data suggest that animals from the two islands are distinct in their morphology, performance, and ecology: Cayman Brac lizards utilize more open habitats, have relatively longer limbs and shorter heads, but higher bite forces on average.
