THE EFFECT OF RECENT DIET ON PREY ODOR DISCRIMINATION BY JUVENILE TEGU LIZARD, TUPINAMBIS-TEGUIXIN (SAURIA, TEIIDAE)
(Gustav Fischer Verlag, 1993-04-01)
Teiid lizards are intesive foragers supposed to rely lagerly on chemoreception for prey detection, an ability that can be modified by previous feeding experiences. We investigated the ability of juvenile lizards, Tupinambis ...

Effects of season, temperature, and body mass on the standard metabolic rate of tegu lizards (Tupinambis merianae)
(Univ Chicago Press, 2008-03-01)
This study examined how the standard metabolic rate of tegu lizards, a species that undergoes large ontogenetic changes in body weight with associated changes in life-history traits, is affected by changes in body mass, ...
Leptospira interrogans infection in tegu lizard (Tupinambis merianae), BrazilInfecção por leptospira interrogans em lagarto teiú (Tupinambis merianae), Brasil
(2020-01-01)
We used 12 tegu lizards (Tupinambis merianae) from northeastern Brazil, and we reported nine (75%) Leptospira sp. PCR-positive animals and six (50%) seropositive. Leptospira sp. DNA sequencing revealed 99% similarity with ...
Seasonal reproductive endothermy in tegu lizards
(2016-01-01)
With some notable exceptions, small ectothermic vertebrates are incapable of endogenously sustaining a body temperature substantially above ambient temperature. This view was challenged by our observations of nighttime ...
Oxidative and osmotolerant effects in Salvator merianae (Squamata: Teiidae) red blood cells during hibernation
(Instituto Internacional de Ecologia, 2021-10-29)
Hibernation is a natural condition of animals that lives in the temperate zone, although some tropical lizards also experience hibernation annually, such as the lizard native from South America, Salvator merianae, or “tegu” ...
Seasonal changes in daily metabolic patterns of tegu lizards (Tupinambis merianae) placed in the cold (17 degrees C) and dark
(Univ Chicago Press, 2008-03-01)
Oxygen consumption rate was measured continuously in young tegu lizards Tupinambis merianae exposed to 4 d at 25 degrees C followed by 7-10 d at 17 degrees C in constant dark at five different times of the year. Under these ...
