The peak of thermoregulation effectiveness: Thermal biology of the Pyrenean rock lizard, Iberolacerta bonnali (Squamata, Lacertidae)

Zaida Ortega, Abraham Mencía, Valentín Pérez-Mellado. Journal of Thermal Biology. Volume 56, February 2016, Pages 77–83. The preferred thermal range (PTR) of I. bonnali indicates that it is a cold-adapted ectotherm with a narrow PTR (29.20–32.77 °C). However, its PTR (3.57 °C) is twice as wide as other Iberolacerta lizards, which may be explained by its
broader historical distribution. Leer más.
