Thermal biology of two tropical lizards from the Ecuadorian Andes and their vulnerability to climate change
This study aims to analyze the thermal biology and climatic vulnerability of two closely related lizard species (Stenocercus festae and S. guentheri) inhabiting the Ecuadorian Andes at high altitudes. Four physiological parameters—body temperature (T(b)), preferred temperature (T(pref)), critical th...
