Research CV Publications Prospective Grad Students ... Contact Lizard Ecology and Evolutionary Biology M y initial research in biology was in community ecology of lizards, and my work was inspired heavily by Eric Pianka (my MA advisor) and by Tom Schoener. Soon, however, I shifted focus to the thermal biology of lizards. T hen, while working with Paul Hertz and Al Bennett, I became increasingly fascinated with the evolution of thermal sensitivity of ectotherms, especially in exploring different ways to study this topic. Along the way I interpreted temperature regulation in an ecological context, emphasized the ecological and evolutionary importance of studying organismal performance measures, developed and applied phylogenetic approaches to study the evolution of physiological performance, used demographic approaches to investigate patterns of selection and of aging in natural populations, and helped explore "allometric engineering" in physiological and life history studies. I'm currently doing very little new lizard research, but the evolutionary perspectives I gained in those studies is central to my current work with Drosophila Representative Huey Papers on Lizards Community Ecology Temperature Regulation Organismal Performance Phylogenetic Approaches ...

Using machine gun-speed piano, clattering snare drum, mock-operetic vocals by Deborah Lizard (real name: Deborah Evans) and a horn section that sounds like it's played by suffering asthmatics - it almost ends up as a reverent version of a song that is so inappropriate anyway that it ends up doing a conceptual double flip - a perfect way to start the record. This is sharply contrasted by the next two numbers;

Melissa Kaplan's Herp Care Collection Last updated May 28, 2004 Rules of Thumb for Evaluating Pet Stores Melissa Kaplan. Originally published in News from the North Bay , August 1995 The following is what good stores do, and bad stores don't. Some of this points take some knowledge of the specific requirements of different species; others should be blatantly obvious to anyone who has ever cared for any living animal. ENCLOSURES The enclosures should be clean: no old feces, urates, long dead or dried foods. It is not difficult to tell the difference between a recently soiled enclosure and one in which wastes have been accruing for some time. The substrate should be suitable for the animal: no cedar chips or shavings, no lava rocks, no inappropriate use of sand, corn cob, alfalfa pellets, soil, moss, etc. Substrate must be clean and dry with necessary humidity provided as needed by clean, dampnot wetmoss, air stone/bubbler, etc. Fresh water in clean bowls for every drinking and soaking animal; for drop-lappers such as geckos, chameleons and anoles, there should be suitable leaves, rocks, branches or clean glass for water deposits from misting/drips.

Gila Monsters - Links Got Pets Online - Lots of Gila Monster pictures, pet eCards, websites, classifieds, and more. Gila Monsters - Habitat Source: Poisonous Animals Team C007974 Thinkquest Gila Monsters inhabit desert and semi arid regions of sandy soils with shrubs. These lizards prefer wet areas, where shrubs grow. A Gila Monster can also live in rocky slopes, arroyos and canyon bottoms that have streams. Gila Monsters spend plenty of time in underground dens. They are found under rocks, in burrows they dig themselves, and in burrows made by other animals. Gila Monsters - Adaptations To survive in the severe environment of desert, Gila Monsters possess several adaptations. Their large bodies allow them to consume large amounts of food in a short period. During the periods when food is scarce, these lizards survive due to the fact that fat is stored in their body, the tails in particular. Thanks to this adaptation, they can feed rather infrequently. Their fat is burnt up slowly, as Gila Monsters have a low metabolic rate. Gila Monsters have poison glands. Their hard bite tends to leave a wound one and a half inch deep. The venom is designed for protection. Since Gila Monsters have colorful, beadlike skin, it serves as a wonderful camouflage in the desert environment as another form of protection.

I'll just look it up on the web ... uh It's either the "long, sweet, succulent, pods of the carob tree" usually eaten by animals or a tan lizard from Central American (usually Guatamala) sometimes eaten by locals. Any clue what this was. Gee, and I usually get adventuorus and order new specials. If that was lizard stew, all I can say is I would have been very sorry if I looked this up after the fact. In the link below there is a picture of the lizard with facts. Also called "Jesus Christ Lizard" because it runs so fast it can run on water. I know if I had ordered it today, and it turned out to be lizard, I'd be saying something along those lines ... JC ... lizard!!! Can't be. How would they keep it IN the water of the stew pot. I mean, come on, this is the suburbs of San Francisco. It is chain wonderland for the most part. They can't be serving lizards, can they? Olive Garden is starting to seem down right appealing. Ideas?

89. Researchers Find A Pattern In Evolution Of Lizard Groups For example, in Australian agamid lizards, a disproportionate number of plan to analyze more lizard groups to see if the general patterns revealed in http://www.scienceblog.com/community/older/2003/A/20037680.html

August 2003 From Washington University in St. Louis Researchers find a pattern in evolution of lizard groups Evolutionary biologists have developed a wide range of techniques to reconstruct the evolutionary history of particular groups of plants and animals. These techniques reveal much about the diverse patterns of evolution of life on earth, but few generalities have emerged, leading many scientists, such as the late Stephen Jay Gould, to conclude that each group of living things evolves in its own idiosyncratic manner. But now biologists at Washington University in St. Louis have proposed a general pattern among groups in the timing of evolutionary diversification. The researchers found that the four lizard groups differed in both respects. For example, in Australian agamid lizards, a disproportionate number of branching events occur deep (early) in the evolutionary tree, whereas, at the other extreme, among the South American Liolaemus lizards, the branching points are evenly distributed throughout the tree. Similarly, the distribution of morphological variation differed in the four groups. In the agamids, closely related species tend to be morphologically similar and distantly related species morphologically different, whereas this relationship is much weaker for Liolaemus . In both cases, the other two lizard groups were intermediate.

93. Lizard-keeping Overview A large percentage of successful lizardkeeping lies in matching an environment Keeping and Breeding lizards, by Chris Mattison, The general Care and http://www.unc.edu/~dtkirkpa/stuff/liztanks.html

A Quick Overview of Lizard-Keeping by David T. Kirkpatrick, Ph.D /head> So you've finally gotten bored with all of those snakes, and now you want to keep something else. Turtles take up too much room, frogs require too much clean water; the next acquisition is going to be a lizard. But what kind of lizard should you get? Before you decide on the lizard itself, you should really think about what type of set-up you can provide for it. A large percentage of successful lizard-keeping lies in matching an environment with an appropriate lizard. For example, if you have a reptile room that is always damp and hot, a day gecko or an anole colony might be a good choice, while a desert skink probably won't do as well. On the other hand, a dry apartment might be appropriate for a leopard gecko or a spiny lizard, as the appropriate heat and water requirements can be provided easily. Another important decision to make is the level of care that you are willing to devote to an animal or habitat. Old World chameleons usually need to be checked a couple of times a day, while leopard geckos will breed for most people with only an hour or two's attention a week. Lizards require more room than snakes although usually not as much as turtles or tortoises. Can you really give them the room that they need, especially in the case of the large lizards (iguanas, for example)? Are you willing to handfeed a lizard every day, or do you want to just dump in some insects and water occasionally? These are extreme examples, of course. Most lizard care is somewhere in between these two, but the question of the amount of care and time you are willing to devote on a daily and weekly basis is a question that you should seriously consider before purchasing any lizard.

Short-horned Lizard Common Name : Short-horned Lizard Scientific Name : Phrynosoma douglassi : 2 ½-5 7/8" (6.3-14.9cm) Habitat : From rocky or sandy plains to forested areas. Diet : Insects (primarily ants) Predators : coyotes, fox, hawks, ravens, large snake and lizards General Biology Often called "horned toads," short-horned lizards are not toads, but flat-bodied lizards with short spines crowning the head. Its trunk is fringed by one row of pointed scales, while the belly scales are smooth. The color is gray, yellowish, or reddish-brown, and there are two rows of large dark spots on the back. When threatened or aggressive, their colors become more intense. The Mountain subspecies is primarily reddish with prominent horizontal spines, and ranges from southern Utah and western Colorado through Arizona, New Mexico, and Mexico. Behavior Horned lizards take part in social activities, including fighting and mating. Courtship occurs between April and July. The short-horned lizard has live-birth litters of 6-31, typically born between July and August in the nests the mothers create. Babies are able to take care of themselves within a few hours but do not grow the horns on the head and back until later in life. The species is most active during midday and burrows at night. Only moving insects are seen as food, and sight of these will cause the lizard to become excited, follow after, and swallow the live insect. Horned lizards deal with predators by camouflaging themselves, hiding, fleeing, or as a last resort, attacking back.

100. Lizard Heaven - General Care Of Bearded Dragons general Care of Bearded Dragons, Pogona Vitticeps. http://www.lizardheaven.com/bearded.htm

GENERAL The Inland Bearded Dragon, Pogona vitticeps , is native to eastern continental Australia, but most of the beardies in pet stores are now captive bred. The name Bearded Dragon comes from the beard of adult males, and the Australian word for this type of lizard. Their color ranges from the "normal" sandy colored tans and beiges to Golds, Oranges, and Reds. Bearded Dragons make excellent reptile pets. Prominent spikes make them look like dinosaurs, but they are usually quite tame and easy to handle. They can even make good pets for children, if properly supervised, and their relatively small size makes them very manageable. A full-grown Bearded Dragon, snout to vent, is less than twelve inches, or approximately 20-24 inches snout to tail. Bearded Dragons have just about the best temperment of all lizards (although water dragon owners might disagree!), they are generally docile, and many seem to actually enjoy being handled. My two watch my every move around the room, often pacing their enclosures and practically "begging" for food and attention! And boy, can they eat! HOUSING Here are some things you need to remember when it comes to housing beardies. First, they are very active lizards and need room to roam. Mel and Sydney thoroughly investigate their environments on a daily basis. (Sydney still hasn't figured out that rocks and driftwood don't taste good, though.) Second, the bare-minimum size for an adult Dragon is a 40-gallon breeder aquarium (36" x 18" x 16"); for a pair, use at least a 100-gallon. Custom wood cages can be used and are a good idea if you plan to house several adults together, but can be difficult to clean due to the porous nature of the wood. This can be overcome by using a non-toxic polyurethane or epoxy coating on the wood. You can also find cages made from molded plastic. They can be expensive, but are lightweight, durable, and easy to clean.
