Francisco Javier Zamora-Camacho , Senda Reguera, Gregorio Moreno-Rueda. International Journal of Biometeorology pp 1-11. First online: 15 September 2015. we examined different thermal ecology and physiology capabilities of the lizard Psammodromus algirus along a 2200-m elevational gradient. We measured field (Tb) and laboratory-preferred (Tpref) body temperatures of lizards with different reproductive conditions, as well as ambient (Ta) and copper-model operative temperature (Te), which we used to determine thermal quality of the habitat (de), accuracy (db), and effectiveness of thermoregulation (de–db) indexes.
