The karyotypes of four of these specimens were, As shown in Table 2, the Toolinna Cove sample contains two genetic groups (OTUs 25A and, 31C) that show a concordant pattern of fixed allelic differences at three loci (, the 41 individuals from this locality (14 of OTU 25A and 27 of OTU 31C) were drawn at, random from a single population of a single species (which is therefore assumed to be in, Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium). An annotated list of reptiles and amphibians from the 1905 Hamburg expedition to southwest Australia deposited in the Zoological Museum Hamburg. It is commonly found in aggregations of up to ten individuals - most aggregations contain one male. Christinus marmoratus, also known as marbled gecko or marbled southern gecko, is a species of Gekkonidae (gecko) native to southern mainland of Australia, from Victoria to Western Australia. CSIRO Publishing, xxx + 1033 pp. The combination Physignathus lesueurii was first used in 1845 by Gray in his Catalogue of the Specimens of Lizards in the British Museum and has been in use ever since. We were unable to determine, whether this pair is the third or fourth largest in the karyotype. shows a highly significant difference between the two taxa (Table 3).

It is obvious then that an understanding of the meaning of species is a prerequisite of the understanding of the role of chromosomes in speciation. Kaliwatan sa tiki ang Christinus marmoratus. some specimens allocated to this taxon on the basis of scalation were found to lack these spots; this condition was particularly prevalent in the more inland localities, where dorsal colouration, A specimen from Eucla was figured by Storr (1987, fig. These observations of social behaviour in the laboratory, together with preliminary observations of behaviour of this species in the field, suggest that Carlia rostralis exhibits different patterns of social behaviour from that observed in other scincid lizards.

Yep, that's how much we love you guys and our local wildlife! Gray’s allocation of this taxon to his earlier genus Lophura Gray, 1827, created for the species Lacerta lophura Shaw, 1802, does not mention that Cuvier (1829) had erected Istiurus for amboinensis Schlosser, 1768, which Cuvier treated as a senior synonym of lophura.

Bauer 2014. then compared by clustering techniques and examination of the geographic patterns of allele distribution. However, as noted earlier, the close similarity in dorsal patterning to the Nullarbor, was marred by the composite nature of their sample of the 2, Reproductive patterns in Western Australian, . Specimens are deposited in the following collections: S = South. Fully regenerated tails are characterized by an abrupt change in dorsal skin colouring and pattern at the level of the original fracture plane. We follow their generic allocation of the Australian-region, Rofe 1976; King and King 1977) and reproductive strategy (King and Rofe 1976; How, 1987), and this has prompted speculation that it might be a sibling species complex (King and. Such data may clarify the processes that stimulate aggregation, and that determine patterns of co-occurrence of individuals with respect to sex and body size. 1.15.1.1) and triose-phosphate isomerase (TPI, E.C. family Iguanidae with a discussion of taxonomic and cytological implications. 1. In, open dorsally, following the contour of the rostrum, and resulting in more closely approximated, anterior supranasal scales. Toes and fingers with large pads. 4.2.1.3), adenylate kinase (AK, E.C. The species is well adapted to a variety of habitats, including city dwellings.. contrast, most of the other species have sperm with a broader lateral face and three ventral processes. Transmission electron microscopy of spermatozoa for three species in two genera are also given. Adults reach an average (snout-vent) length of 50mm, and weigh about 2.5g. The species is well adapted to a variety of habitats, including city dwellings.1 This group, along with other related taxa, are also known as Marbled Gecko. Rollinson.) EWL/RMR) were calculated, for 22 species of Western Australian gecko. The presence of a, similar heteromorphism in the karyotype of this second species suggests that it may be a feature.

Christinus marmoratus: (1) to what extent do marbled geckos behaviorally thermoregulate during the day-time, and (2) which behavioral mechanisms do marbled geckos use to thermoregulate during the daytime? Males show maximum testicular volumes, during the early part of the year (January–May). They are frequently found in old knotted trees and sometimes congregate in … Attempts at C-banding to, determine whether the heteromorphism was due to the addition of heterochromatin or to a, pericentric rearrangement were unsuccessful. ; Aplin,K.P. 4.2.1.1), enolase (ENO, E.C.

Overview of morphological variation in Australian, The morphological analysis was directed at resolving the distribution and identity of the two, species identified by the genetic analysis on the Nullarbor Plain. Species of Anisomys and Hyomys have a sperm head with a broad lateral face but with only a single apical process. More distinct again are the specimens of OTUs 27 and 30, the latter confirmed as 2, noted previously by Storr (1987), populations from the south-western region of Western Australia, differ from all others both in aspects of colouration (broader transverse bands that are, approximately equal in width to the intervening pale bands; Fig. 6) comprises a graded series of 18 pairs of mostly acrocentric, = 36 ZZ/ZW races examined during the present, Fitzinger, 1843 (type locality Kangaroo Island) is a, 1983: 98)].

An additional difference, best seen in, dorsal view, concerns the orientation of the narial apertures. Sample sizes are given in parentheses at. Definition (genus). In both the male and, female karyotype, a single pair amongst the larger chromosomes is heteromorphic, one, chromosome being acrocentric and the other submetacentric. In 1885 Boulenger placed D. marmoratus in the genus Phyllodactylus (the leaf-toed geckos). Environmental correlates of reptile variation on the Houtman Abrolhos archipelago, eastern Indian Ocean. plication (WGD) itself. Cuvier considered the generic name Lophura to be too similar to Lophyrus Latreille, 1802, a genus of conifer sawflies belonging to the family Diprionidae, hence the need for a new genus. Not having a clear idea of the nature of species, some of these authors brought more confusion than light to the subject. Het geslacht omvat de volgende soorten: Resistance to evaporative water loss (R) was not 4. Christinus marmoratus demonstrates the presence of a The contrasted patterns of these geckos, its marbling, are found in a variety of reddish brown, grey, silver, white, black and purplish hues.
