CANNIBALISM IN THE SPANISH ALGYROIDES (ALGYROIDES HIDALGOI, LACERTIDAE): ECO-EVOLUTIONARY IMPLICATIONS? 1 JOSÉ LUIS RUBIO AND ALEJANDRO ALONSO-ALUMBREROS Departamento de Ecología, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Cantoblanco 28049, Madrid, Spain, and Centro de Investigación en Biodiversidad y Cambio Global (CIBC-UAM), Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, C. Darwin 2, E-28049, Madrid, Spain 1Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract.—Cannibalism is a widespread behavior, although relatively less reported in reptiles than other taxa. Many studies indicate its importance in population regulation and life history of the species concerned, while others regard it as an opportunistic behavior. We present the first report of cannibalism in the Spanish Algyroides (Algyroides hidalgoi), a small and stenotopic lacertid lizard that occupies rocky shaded and humid localities in a reduced distribution area in the southeastern mountains of the Iberian Peninsula. Within an ongoing study of the species trophic ecology, we found tail-scales of this lizard within a fecal pellet. By studying the morphology and microornamentation of the scales, we identified the victim as an adult conspecific, and we discuss the implications of the event within the framework of the particularities of the species. While cannibalism by lizards has been associated mainly with high lizard population densities and unproductive and predator-scarce environments (mainly islands), the Spanish Algyroides shows nearly the opposite characteristics. The scales found represent a very small proportion of the studied ingested prey. Cannibalism seems not to have important demographic implications in this species. The case adds to other cannibalism reports that do not find adaptive value of this behavior in lizards, and contributes to the discussion found in the literature (opportunism vs adaptation) stressing the need of further research. Key Words.—conspecific predation; feeding behavior; lacertids; lizards; scale microornamentation; Spanish Algyroides Resumen.—El canibalismo es un comportamiento muy extendido, aunque relativamente menos descrito en los reptiles que en otros grupos zoológicos. Muchos trabajos señalan su importancia en la regulación de poblaciones y la estrategia vital de las especies implicadas, mientras que otros lo consideran un comportamiento oportunista. Presentamos el primer caso de canibalismo en la Lagartija de Valverde, Algyroides hidalgoi, un lacértido muy pequeño y estenotópico que ocupa localidades umbrías y húmedas en un área de distribución muy reducida en las sierras surorientales de la Península Ibérica. Durante un estudio en curso sobre la ecología trófica de la especie, encontramos escamas caudales de esta lagartija en uno de los excrementos. El estudio de la morfología y la microornamentación de las escamas, nos permitió identificar la víctima como un conspecífico adulto. Discutimos las implicaciones del evento en el contexto de las particularidades de la especie. Mientras que el canibalismo en los lagartos y lagartijas se ha asociado principalmente a densidades de población altas y medios poco productivos y con escasa presión de depredación (principalmente en islas), la Lagartija de Valverde parece mostrar características prácticamente opuestas. Las escamas encontradas representan una proporción muy baja en nuestra muestra de presas consumidas. El canibalismo no parece tener gran importancia en la demografía de esta especie. El caso se suma a otros registros de canibalismo que no encuentran valor adaptativo en este comportamiento en lagartos y lagartijas, y contribuye a la discusión existente en la literatura (oportunismo vs adaptación), enfatizando la necesidad de futuras investigaciones. Palabras Clave.—comportamiento de alimentación; lacértidos; Lagartija de Valverde; lagartos y lagartijas; microornamentación de escamas; predación intraespecífica. INTRODUCTION both vertebrates and invertebrates (Fox 1975; Polis 1981; Polis and Myers 1985; Pfenning 1997) and has Cannibalism is widespread in many zoological received relatively less attention in an eco-evolutionary groups (Fox 1975; Polis 1981; Pfenning 1997), and context (but see for instance Ohlberger et al. 2020 it has been the subject of many field and laboratory and references therein). Many studies on reptilian studies. In reptiles, cannibalism has been reported in cannibalism consider this behavior (as in other animals) many species, albeit with relatively lower frequency and highly significant for the population dynamics and life intensity, particularly in lizards, than in other groups, history of the species concerned (e.g., Cushing 1992; Copyright © 2021.

In this sense, objective of this study was to confidently identify lizard cannibalism is considered to have high adaptive value, scales within a scat and to estimate its size/age class by even in cases with low intra-population cannibalism studying the morphology and microonamentation of the frequency (e.g., Fox 1975; Polis 1981; Cushing 1991). scales.

Other authors keeled, superimposed, and pointed backwards (Salvador have simply seen opportunism in this behavior, related 2014). This was true of the scales we found in a scat and to the generalist trophic-strategy widely attributed to of those of the sympatric lacertid lizards sharing the area most species of lizards, and considering the low relative with A. hidalgoi. We positively determined our sample frequency of cannibalistic events found in lizards (e.g., as lacertid lizard caudal scales.

  • Short Note Phylogeographic Evidence for Multiple Long-Distance
    Amphibia-Reptilia 40 (2019): 121-127 brill.com/amre Short Note Phylogeographic evidence for multiple long-distance introductions of the common wall lizard associated with human trade and transport Joana L. Santos1, Anamarija Žagar1,2,3,∗, Katarina Drašler3, Catarina Rato1, César Ayres4, D. James Harris1, Miguel A. Carretero1, Daniele Salvi1,5,* Abstract. The common wall lizard has been widely introduced across Europe and overseas. We investigated the origin of putatively introduced Podarcis muralis populations from two southern Europe localities: (i) Ljubljana (Slovenia), where uncommon phenotypes were observed near the railway tracks and (ii) the port of Vigo (Spain), where the species was recently found 150 km far from its previously known range. We compared cytochrome-b mtDNA sequences of lizards from these populations with published sequences across the native range. Our results support the allochthonous status and multiple, long-distance origins in both populations. In Ljubljana, results support two different origins, Serbia and Italy. In Vigo, at least two separate origins are inferred, from western and eastern France. Such results confirm that human-mediated transport is promoting biological invasion and lineage admixture in this species. Solid knowledge of the origin and invasion pathways, as well as population monitoring, is crucial for management strategies to be successful.

Real Romero, D., Olivero, J., Real, R., 2019. Accounting for uncertainty in assessing the impact of climate change on biodiversity hotspots in Spain. Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 42.2: 355–367, Doi: https://doi. org/10.32800/abc.2019.42.0355 Abstract Accounting for uncertainty in assessing the impact of climate change on biodiversity hotspots in Spain. Our limited understanding of the complexity of nature generates uncertainty in mathematical and cartographical models used to predict the effects of climate change on species’ distributions. We developed predictive models of distributional range shifts of threatened vertebrate species in mainland Spain, and in their accumulation in biodiversity hotspots due to climate change. We considered two relevant sources of climatological uncertainty that affect predictions of future climate: general circulation models and socio–economic scenarios. We also examined the relative im- portance of climate as a driver of species' distribution and taxonomic uncertainty as additional biogeographical causes of uncertainty. Uncertainty was detected in all the forecasts derived from models in which climate was a significant explanatory factor, and in the species with taxonomic uncertainty. Uncertainty in forecasts was mainly located in areas not occupied by the species, and increased with time difference from the present. Mapping this uncertainty allowed us to assess the consistency of predictions regarding future changes in the distribution of hotspots of threatened vertebrates in Spain. Key words: Climate change, Prediction accuracy, Taxonomic uncertainty, Threatened species, Uncertainty mapping Resumen Considerar la incertidumbre en la evaluación de los efectos del cambio climático en las zonas de gran diversidad de España.

  • Ship Rats and Island Reptiles: Patterns of Co-Existence in the Mediterranean
    Ship rats and island reptiles: patterns of co-existence in the Mediterranean Daniel Escoriza GRECO, University of Girona, Girona, Girona, Spain ABSTRACT Background. The western Mediterranean archipelagos have a rich endemic fauna, which includes five species of reptiles. Most of these archipelagos were colonized since early historic times by anthropochoric fauna, such as ship rats (Rattus rattus). Here, I evaluated the influence of ship rats on the occurrence of island reptiles, including non-endemic species. Methodology. I analysed a presence-absence database encompassing 159 islands (Balearic Islands, Provence Islands, Corso-Sardinian Islands, Tuscan Archipelago, and Galite) using Bayesian-regularized logistic regression. Results. The analysis indicated that ship rats do not influence the occurrence of endemic island reptiles, even on small islands. Moreover, Rattus rattus co-occurred positively with two species of non-endemic reptiles, including a nocturnal gecko, a guild considered particularly vulnerable to predation by rats. Overall, the analyses showed a very different pattern than that documented in other regions of the globe, possibly attributable to a long history of coexistence.

  • Molecular Cloning of VIP and Distribution of VIP/VPACR System In
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Molecular Cloning of VIP and Distribution of VIP/VPACR System in the Testis of Podarcis sicula MARISA AGNESE*, LUIGI ROSATI, FRANCESCA CORAGGIO, SALVATORE VALIANTE, AND MARINA PRISCO Department of Biology, University of Naples Federico II, Naples, Italy ABSTRACT Using molecular, biochemical, and cytological tools, we studied the nucleotide and the deduced amino acid sequence of PHI/VIP and the distribution of VIP/VPAC receptor system in the testis of the Italian wall lizard Podarcis sicula to evaluate the involvement of such a neuropeptide in the spermatogenesis control. We demonstrated that (1) Podarcis sicula VIP had a high identity with other vertebrate VIP sequences, (2) differently from mammals, VIP was synthesized directly in the testis, and (3) VIP and its receptor VPAC2 were widely distributed in germ and somatic cells, while the VPAC1R had a distribution limited to Leydig cells. Our results demonstrated that in Podarcis sicula the VIP sequence is highly preserved and that this neuropeptide is involved in lizard spermatogenesis and steroidogenesis. J. Exp.

  • Population Profile of an Introduced Species, the Common Wall Lizard (Podarcis Muralis), on Vancouver Island, Canada
    51 Population profile of an introduced species, the common wall lizard (Podarcis muralis), on Vancouver Island, Canada G. Michael Allan, Christopher J. Prelypchan, and Patrick T. Gregory Abstract: Introduced species represent one of the greatest potential threats to persistence of native species. Therefore, it is important to understand the ecology of introduced species in order to develop appropriate mitigation strategies if required. In this study, using data collected in 1992–1993, we describe some fundamental population attributes of com- mon wall lizards, Podarcis muralis (Laurenti, 1768), of Italian origin, introduced near Victoria, British Columbia, in the early 1970s. Male and female wall lizards reached similar snout–vent lengths, but males had relatively longer tails and were heavier. However, when gravid, females attained a body mass similar to that of males of equal snout–vent length. We found gravid females in all months from May to July, inclusive, but hatchlings did not appear in the field before late July. Growth rate was inversely related to body size, and lizards probably reached maturity in their second full summer. Larger lizards were more likely than smaller lizards to have experienced tail loss prior to capture, but the probability of tail loss upon capture was higher for smaller lizards than for adults. Our results suggest no fundamental differences in population characteristics between P. muralis on southern Vancouver Island and populations at sites within the species’ natural range in Europe. Whether P. muralis on Vancouver Island is a threat to the native northern alligator lizard, Elgaria coerulea (Wiegmann, 1828), remains an open question.
