- Comparative cranial biomechanics in two lizard species: impact of variation in cranial design.
Dutel H, Gröning F, Sharp AC et al. · The Journal of experimental biology · 2021-03 · open access
Cranial morphology in lepidosaurs is highly disparate and characterised by the frequent loss or reduction of bony elements. In varanids and geckos, the loss of the postorbital bar is associated with changes in skull shape, but the mechanical principles underlying this variation remain poorly…
- Argentine Black and White Tegu (Salvator merianae) can survive the winter under semi-natural conditions well beyond their current invasive range.
Goetz SM, Steen DA, Miller MA et al. · PloS one · 2021-03 · open access
The Argentine Black and White Tegu (Salvator merianae, formerly Tupinambis merianae) is a large lizard from South America. Now established and invasive in southern Florida, and it poses threats to populations of many native species. Models suggest much of the southern United States may contain…

Abrahão CR, Moreno LZ, Silva JCR et al. · Microorganisms · 2020-12 · open access
1. Introduction Salmonella infection is a major source of gastrointestinal disease in humans, especially children, elders or immunosuppressed individuals. Reptiles are common asymptomatic reservoirs of Salmonella, while the bacteria retain the pathogenicity for warm blooded animals. Food of animal…
- Baroreflex gain and time of pressure decay at different body temperatures in the tegu lizard, Salvator merianae.
Filogonio R, Orsolini KF, Oda GM et al. · PloS one · 2020-11 · open access
Ectotherms may experience large body temperature (Tb) variations. Higher Tb have been reported to increase baroreflex sensitivity in ectotherm tetrapods. At lower Tb, pulse interval (PI) increases and diastolic pressure decays for longer, possibly resulting in lower end-diastolic pressures and mean…

- Conspecific chemical cues facilitate mate trailing by invasive Argentine black and white tegus.
Richard SA, Bukovich IMG, Tillman EA et al. · PloS one · 2020-08 · open access
Squamate reptiles (snakes and lizards) rely on chemical cues from conspecifics to search the environment for potential mates. How such cues are used by invasive species to facilitate reproduction, especially seasonally, is a key question that can inform management practices. The Argentine black and…

- Locomotor rib kinematics in two species of lizards and a new hypothesis for the evolution of aspiration breathing in amniotes.
Cieri RL, Hatch ST, Capano JG et al. · Scientific reports · 2020-05 · open access
Most lizards walk and run with a sprawling gait in which the limbs are partly advanced by lateral undulation of the axial skeleton. Ribs and vertebrae are integral to this locomotor mode, but 3D motion of the axial skeleton has not been reported for lizard locomotion. Here, we use XROMM to quantify…
- Ecological Plasticity and the Future of the Argentine Giant Tegu (Salvator merianae Dumeril and Bibron, 1839) in the Southeastern US

- A new species of Cruzia (Ascaridida; Kathlanidae) parasitizing Salvator merianae (Squamata, Teiidae) from the Atlantic forest in Brazil.
Vieira FM, Gonçalves PA, Lima SS et al. · Revista brasileira de parasitologia veterinaria = Brazilian journal of veterinary parasitology : Orgao Oficial do Colegio Brasileiro de Parasitologia Veterinaria · 2020-04 · open access
Cruzia lauroi sp. nov. is described from Salvator merianae (Duméril & Bibron, 1839) (Squamata; Teiidae). The new species differs from all previously described species through several morphological characteristics: number of tooth like structures per row in the inner pharynx; and presence of…
