Liner Houma, Louisiana smithsonian herpetological information service no. 127 2000 SMITHSONIAN HERPETOLOGICAL INFORMATION SERVICE The SHIS series publishes and distributes translations, bibliographies, indices, and similar items judged useful to individuals interested in the biology of amphibians and reptiles, but unlikely to be published in the normal technical journals. Single copies are distributed free to interested individuals. Libraries, herpetological associations, and research laboratories are invited to exchange their publications with the Division of Amphibians and Reptiles. We wish to encourage individuals to share their bibliographies, translations, etc. with other herpetologists through the SHIS series. If you have such items please contact George Zug for instructions on preparation and submission. Contributors receive 50 free copies. Please address all requests for copies and inquiries to George Zug, Division of Amphibians and Reptiles, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington DC 20560 USA. Please include a self-addressed mailing label with requests. Introduction Hobart M. Smith is one of herpetology's most prolific autiiors. As of 30 June 1999, he authored or co-authored 1367 publications covering a range of scholarly and popular papers dealing with such diverse subjects as taxonomy, life history, geographical distribution, checklists, nomenclatural problems, bibliographies, herpetological coins, anatomy, comparative anatomy textbooks, pet books, book reviews, abstracts, encyclopedia entries, prefaces and forwords as well as updating volumes being repnnted. The checklists of the herpetofauna of Mexico authored with Dr. Edward H. Taylor are legendary as is the Synopsis of the Herpetofalhva of Mexico coauthored with his late wife, Rozella B. -
Checklist of Helminths from Lizards and Amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) of South America Ticle R A
The Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases ISSN 1678-9199 | 2010 | volume 16 | issue 4 | pages 543-572 Checklist of helminths from lizards and amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) of South America TICLE R A Ávila RW (1), Silva RJ (1) EVIEW R (1) Department of Parasitology, Botucatu Biosciences Institute, São Paulo State University (UNESP – Univ Estadual Paulista), Botucatu, São Paulo State, Brazil. Abstract: A comprehensive and up to date summary of the literature on the helminth parasites of lizards and amphisbaenians from South America is herein presented. One-hundred eighteen lizard species from twelve countries were reported in the literature harboring a total of 155 helminth species, being none acanthocephalans, 15 cestodes, 20 trematodes and 111 nematodes. Of these, one record was from Chile and French Guiana, three from Colombia, three from Uruguay, eight from Bolivia, nine from Surinam, 13 from Paraguay, 12 from Venezuela, 27 from Ecuador, 17 from Argentina, 39 from Peru and 103 from Brazil. The present list provides host, geographical distribution (with the respective biome, when possible), site of infection and references from the parasites. A systematic parasite-host list is also provided. Key words: Cestoda, Nematoda, Trematoda, Squamata, neotropical. INTRODUCTION The present checklist summarizes the diversity of helminths from lizards and amphisbaenians Parasitological studies on helminths that of South America, providing a host-parasite list infect squamates (particularly lizards) in South with localities and biomes. America had recent increased in the past few years, with many new records of hosts and/or STUDIED REGIONS localities and description of several new species (1-3). -

Abstract The karyotype of Amphisbaena ridleyi, an endemic species of the archipelago of Fernando de Noronha, in State of Pernambuco, Brazil, is described after conventional staining, Ag-NOR impregnation and fluorescence in situ hybrid- ization (FISH) with a telomeric probe. The diploid number is 46, with nine pairs of macrochromosomes (three metacentrics, four subtelocentrics and two acrocentrics) and 14 pairs of microchromosomes. The Ag-NOR is located in the telomeric region of the long arm of metacentric chromosome 2 and FISH revealed signals only in the telomeric region of all chromosomes. Further cytogenetic data on other amphisbaenians as well as a robust phylogenetic hy- pothesis of this clade is needed in order to understand the evolutionary changes on amphisbaenian karyotypes. Key words: Amphisbaena ridleyi, karyotype, Fernando de Noronha, Ag-NOR, FISH with telomeric probes. -
Annual Report
ANNUAL REPORT 2011 The Centre for Ecological and Evolutionary Synthesis (CEES) combines a broad spectrum of disciplines (such as population biology, statistical and mathematical modelling and genom- ics) to foster the concept of ecology as a driving force of evolu- tion via selective processes, with a corresponding influence of evolutionary changes on ecology. Bumblebee in the Herb Garden at Blindern Campus, UiO © Ruben A. Pettersen Cover picture: Stockfish (dried cod) in Ballstad, Lofoten © Martin Malmstrøm CEES IN BRIEF CEES is chaired by Professor Nils Chr. Stenseth. As of 31 December 2011 CEES consists of 125 members including students, researchers, technical and administrative personnel. The centre has a core group of 19 employees of which 12 are full-time, two are employed by the Department of Mathematics, one by the Department of Economy and one by the Institute of Marine Research. In 2011, CEES hosted two Kristine Bonnevie Professors, from Florida State University (USA) and the Norwegian University of Life Sciences. One em- ployee is a visiting scientist at the University of Alberta (Canada). There were representa- tives from 25 nationalities at CEES in 2011. CEES supervised 23 Master and 28 PhD students in 2011, and was also involved in the teaching of 13 PhD/Master courses and 4 Bachelor courses. 4 new PhD students were employed, and 9 PhD students and 8 master students completed their degrees. The CEES graduate school held its annual conference at Holmen Fjordhotell with 114 participants. Approximately 59 MNOK of the total 2011 budget of 121 MNOK came from the 54 exter- nally funded research projects conducted by CEES in 2011. -

Anolis Planiceps (Leaf Anole)
UWI The Online Guide to the Animals of Trinidad and Tobago Diversity Anolis planiceps (Leaf Anole) Family: Polychrotidae (Anoles and Tree Lizards) Order: Squamata (Lizards and Snakes) Class: Reptilia (Reptiles) Fig. 1. Leaf anole, Anolis planiceps. [http://www.trinidad-tobagoherps.org/Images/planiceps.jpg, downloaded 24 October 2016] TRAITS. Formerly known as Anolis chrysolepis or Norops chrysolepis, the leaf anole measures up to 76mm from snout to vent according (D'Angiolella et al., 2011). The pads of their feet are specialised to help them rest on leaves and trunks (Fig. 1). They have a spotted red patch of skin below theirs jaws, which is extendable, called the dewlap (Fig. 2). The region along the lizard's spine has larger scales than the adjacent areas with those located in the mid-dorsal area being the largest. Along their heads are two prominent ridges as well as ridged (keeled) scales located above the eyes (Fig. 3). The dorsal scales of the leaf anole are several shades of brown while the ventral scales are a pale cream colour; patterns vary greatly within populations (Fig. 4) (Vanzolini and Williams, 1970). Male anoles have longer tails and the females have wider bodies and smaller dewlaps than males (Vitt and Zani, 2011). DISTRIBUTION. Leaf anoles may be found in a relatively wide range from east Venezuela to Guyana, Suriname, Columbia, Trinidad and Brazil (Fig. 5). They are found throughout the island of Trinidad primarily in terrestrial, highly forested areas (D'Angiolella et al, 2011).
