Rediscovery and redescription of the holotype of Liolaemus lemniscatus Gravenhorst, 1838 (Reptilia, Squamata, Liolaemidae)

Comparative phylogeography of codistributed species of Chilean Liolaemus (Squamata: Tropiduridae) from the central-southern Andean range.

In this study, we used a recently developed supertrees method to test for shared phylogeographical signal in partially overlapping geographical ranges of lizards of the genus Liolaemus from the Andean Range in south-central Chile. We reconstruct mtDNA gene trees for three partially codistributed species (Liolaemus tenuis, L. lemniscatus and L. pictus), and our sampling effort is sufficient to a...

The missing leopard lizard: Liolaemus ubaghsi sp. nov., a new species of the leopardinus clade (Reptilia: Squamata: Liolaemidae) from the Andes of the O'Higgins Region in Chile.

Liolaemus is an extremely species rich genus of iguanid lizards from southern South America. Most of the diversity though is found in the Andes Cordillera, between Argentina and Chile. Here we describe Liolaemus ubaghsi sp. nov., from El Teniente Mine, in the Andean mountains of the O'Higgins Region in Chile. This species pr<a href="http...

A new species of Liolaemus (Reptilia: Squamata) from southwestern Rio Negro province, northern Patagonia, Argentina

A new species of lizard of the genus Liolaemus from southwestern Rio Negro Province, central Patagonia is described. The new species is a member of the Liolaemus fitzingerii group, and molecular data show it as sister taxon of L. martorii, but it differs in size, squamation, coloration, and sexual dimorphism. Liolaemus casamiquelai sp. nov. is terrestrial, dwelling on loose sandy soil in a shru...

Redescription and geographical variation of Monopeltis guentheri Boulenger (Amphisbaenia, Reptilia)

A morphology-based phylogeny of the Liolaemus alticolor-bibronii group (Iguania: Liolaemidae).

The genus Liolaemus was split in two subgenera, Liolaenus sensu stricto and Eulaemus. Inside the Liolaemus sensu stricto subgenus, many groups have been proposed. One of them is the L. alticolor-bibronii group. Here, I studied 184 morpho- logical characters of more than one thousand specimens that of the L. alticolor-bibronii group. Many of these characters are original from this study, especia...
