Neotropical lizard lineages represent a considerable taxonomic and phenotypic diversity, distributed along multiple ecological and climatic gradients. Relations between environmental factors and patterns of distribution of morphological diversity remain unknown in these lineages. Ecological parameters may also explain the evolution of phenotypic patterns, allowing the postulation of relat…
The evolution of similar body forms through independent evolutionary processes confirms the expected association between environment and morphology during the evolutionary history of biological lineages. A good example of ecological transition involving similar morphological variations in Tetrapoda is the evolution of fossoriality, habitat usage in which movement and daily activities are …
Patterns of biodiversity distribution reveal ecological and evolutionary processes and also constitute an essential framework for projections from scenarios of climatic changes and conservation strategies. Morphological diversity is often relegated in many studies considering global patterns of biodiversity distribution despite its crucial role perpetuating lineages that face environmenta…
Fossoriality has evolved multiple times within lizards, being frequently associated to body elongation and limb loss. Snakelike morphologies have been roughly interpreted as being equivalent, and explanations for the prevalence of limbless elongated phenotypes rescue energetic and biomechanical benefits for burrowing. Most fossorial lizards are head-first burrowers, and modifications in h…
