Indonesia is the largest producer of oil palm and second exporter rubber worldwide; a significant part country's rainforests have been converted to agriculture. Conservation measures are needed assess reduce impact agricultural intensification on vertebrate fauna, but limited effort has put so far in understanding effects habitat conversion reptiles amphibians. Here we study community composition, species richness abundance herpetofauna densely farmed Jambi province, central Sumatra...
Parthenogenesis, unisexuality and triploidy are interesting but poorly studied phenomena occurring in some reptile species. The mourning gecko (Lepidodactylus lugubris) represents a complex of diploid triploid parthenogenetic mostly all-female populations (males occur quite rarely) widely distributed coastal areas the Indian Pacific Oceans. Here, we study karyotypes male two female L. lugubris (LLU) individuals (3n = 66) using comparative painting with Gekko japonicus, Hemidactylus turcicus...
<i>Acanthodactylus lineomaculatus</i> is now regarded as an ecotype of <i>A. erythrurus</i> with which it has been recently synonymized. Despite the wide range erythrurus,</i> karyological data for this species are scarce and limited to classical cytogenetic studies carried out in individuals from only 2 locations (central Spain Spanish enclave Melilla on northwestern Mediterranean Moroccan coast). Here, first time, we cytogenetically characterized southwestern...
