- Skin lipids alone enable conspecific tracking in an invasive reptile, the Argentine black and white tegu lizard (Salvator merianae).
Parker MR, Tillman EA, Nazarian LA et al. · PloS one · 2023-10 · open access
Locating potential mates in non-native habitats is one of the most important challenges faced by invasive vertebrate species. The Argentine black and white tegu lizard (Salvator merianae) is a major invasive reptile species in the contiguous United States and is rapidly expanding its range across…

- How to estimate body condition in large lizards? Argentine black and white tegu (Salvator merianae, Duméril and Bibron, 1839) as a case study.
McCaffrey KR, Balaguera-Reina SA, Falk BG et al. · PloS one · 2023-02 · open access
Body condition is a measure of the health and fitness of an organism represented by available energy stores, typically fat. Direct measurements of fat are difficult to obtain non-invasively, thus body condition is usually estimated by calculating body condition indices (BCIs) using mass and length.…

- Open removal models with temporary emigration and population dynamics to inform invasive animal management.
Udell B, Martin J, Romagosa C et al. · Ecology and evolution · 2022-08 · open access
Removal sampling data are the primary source of monitoring information for many populations (e.g., invasive species, fisheries). Population dynamics, temporary emigration, and imperfect detection are common sources of variation in monitoring data and are key parameters for informing management. We…

- Apatite in Hamipterus tianshanensis eggshell: advances in understanding the structure of pterosaur eggs by Raman spectroscopy
Ying Li, Xufeng Zhu, Qiang Wang et al. · Heritage Science · 2022-06 · open access
Abstract Pterosaur eggs can offer information about pterosaur reproductive strategies and are extremely precious because only a small number of specimens have been discovered. Previous studies have mainly focused on morphological descriptions of pterosaur eggs and their embryos while the chemical…

Bishop PJ, Wright MA, Pierce SE · PeerJ · 2021-11 · open access
Skeletal muscle mass, architecture and force-generating capacity are well known to scale with body size in animals, both throughout ontogeny and across species. Investigations of limb muscle scaling in terrestrial amniotes typically focus on individual muscles within select clades, but here this…

Abstract Invasive species globally threaten biodiversity and economies, but the ecophysiological mechanisms underlying their success are often understudied. For those alien species that also exhibit high phenotypic plasticity, such as habitat generalists, adaptations in response to environmental…

The Argentine black and white tegu (Salvator merianae) is a reptile belonging to the family Teiidae. Compared with other families, teiids are morphologically similar. However, their sizes vary considerably, with S. merianae being the largest endemic lizard in South America. The characteristics,…
