Chemical recognition in a snake-lizard predator-prey system
(Springer, 2015)
In a predator-prey interaction, the fitnesses of the predator and the prey depend on their abilities to recognize each other, a process that may involve different sensory modalities. Squamate reptiles are highly dependent ...
Testing the functionality of precloacal secretions from both sexes in the South American lizard, Liolaemus chiliensis
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2017)
The behavior of lizards can be highly influenced by chemical senses. The most studied pheromonal sources in lizards has been the femoral and precloacal gland secretions, although studies have been focused on male secretions, ...
Proteins from femoral gland secretions of male rock lizards Iberolacerta cyreni allow self—but not individual—recognition of unfamiliar males
(Springer, 2020)
Individual recognition (IR) plays an important role in modulating social interactions of several animal species. IR may work at two fundamental levels: at class-level (CIR), if it allows group membership identification ...
Large-scale patterns of signal evolution: an interspecific study of Liolaemus lizard headbob displays
(ACADEMIC PRESS LTD ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2004-09)
Although many factors have been shown to influence the evolution of species recognition signals in a wide variety of taxa, it is difficult to draw general conclusions because of fundamental differences in the morphologies ...
Ectoparasitism by eutrombicula alfreddugesi larvae (acari: Trombiculidae) on liolaemus tenuis lizard in a chilean fragmented temperate forest
(2009)
We compared parasite load (prevalence and mean intensity) of Eutrombicula alfreddugesi larvae on the lizard Liolaemus tenuis sampled during January 2006 and 2007 from the interior and edges of large forest tracts in the ...
Seasonal Flexibility in Organ Size in the Andean Lizard Liolaemus moradoensis
(WILEY-LISS, DIV JOHN WILEY & SONS INC, 2010-10-21)
The understanding of animal functioning
in fluctuating environments is a major goal of physiological
and evolutionary ecology. In temperate terrestrial habitats,
one of the most pervasive changes in environmental
conditions ...
Chemical recognition in a snake–lizard predator–prey system
(Springer Verlag, 2015)
© 2014, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg and ISPA.In a predator–prey interaction, the fitnesses of the predator and the prey depend on their abilities to recognize each other, a process that may involve different sensory ...
Comparing the antipredator behaviour of two sympatric, but not syntopic, Liolaemus lizards
(Elsevier, 2018)
The microhabitat preferences of prey animals can modulate how they perceive predation risk, and therefore, their antipredator behaviour. We tested under standardized conditions how microhabitat preferences of two Liolaemus ...
