TLDR
Assessment of physiological divergence in two sympatric lacertid lizards suggests that physiological mechanisms, ecological preferences and morphology probably allow these two species to overlap in their distribution while selecting different microhabitats and thus decreasing possible competition between them.About:

TL;DR: The authors reconstruct the phylogeny of lacertid lizards and investigate how the evolution of this clade has varied with paleoclimates and how closely adapted extant species are to modern climates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dehydration constrains thermoregulation and space use in lizards.
TL;DR: It is aimed for the first time to explore if lacertid lizards exposed to dehydration thermoregulate less precisely than hydrated lizards and if dehydratedLizards are less active, change the daily pattern of thermore gulation and balance water balance against thermoreGulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increase of genetic diversity indicates ecological opportunities in recurrent-fire landscapes for wall lizards.
TL;DR: This study confirms field-based censuses showing that recurrent-fire regimes give ecological opportunities to wall lizards that benefit from habitat openness and examines whether a recurrent fire regime may disrupt the spatial structure of populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variation in field body temperature and total evaporative water loss along an environmental gradient in a diurnal ectotherm
TL;DR: The first data for a lacertid lizard on the inter-population variability and sexual difference in water loss rates is presented and it is pointed out that water balance may play a fundamental role in regulating lizard activity during the hottest and driest period of the year.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fossil-calibrated time tree of Podarcis wall lizards provides limited support for biogeographic calibration models.
TL;DR: In this article, a robust time tree based on multilocus data and fossil calibrations using both gene concatenation and species-tree approaches and including models with gene-flow was inferred.
