Dehydration and hypersalinity challenge non-marine organisms crossing the ocean. The rate of water loss and saltwater tolerance thus determine the ability to disperse over sea and further influence species distribution. Surprisingly, this association between physiology and ecology is rarely investigated in terrestrial vertebrates. Here we conducted immersion experiments to individuals and eggs of six lizard species differently distributed across Taiwan and the adjacent islands to understand if the physiological responses reflect the geographical distribution.

Posters on animal groups are of special interest because they easily get the attention of people who can find, in a single place, information that other- wise could be difficult to assemble. We are happy to present the most recent poster on a group of amphibians, a production of the Rescue of Endangered Venezuelan Amphibians (REVA) Conservation Center with the support of the Chessington Conservation Fund.
