This study investigates whether melanistic coloration in crepuscular geckos affects thermoregulation, finding no significant relationship between melanistic coloration and body temperature changes.

This study examines whether heat tolerance predicts geographic thermal limits of animal species, finding mixed results across taxa and highlighting the importance of behavioral and environmental factors.

This study uses population genomic analyses to trace the evolutionary history of wall lizards in the Mediterranean Basin, revealing multiple lineages shaped by geological and climatic events.

The paper identifies regulatory changes in pterin and carotenoid genes that underlie color polymorphisms in wall lizards, showing that these loci have pleiotropic effects on physiology.
