Abstract:
Fringe-toed lizards (Uma) are among the most specialized lizards in North America, adapted to insular windblown sand habitats in the hyper-arid southwestern deserts, with allopatric distributions, subtle morphological variation, and an unstable taxonomic history. We analyzed a morphological dataset of 40 characters for 65 specimens and a molecular dataset of 2,286 bases from three mitochondrial loci for 92 individuals and interpreted these data alongside published analyses of multi-locus genetic data with the goal of revising the taxonomy of the Uma notata (Baird 1858) species complex. We confirmed that fringe-toed lizards from the Mohawk Dunes in southwestern Arizona (U. sp.) constitute a cryptic species sister to the rest of the complex that can be diagnosed with DNA barcoding and geography, so we describe and name this species Uma thurmanae sp. nov. We also confirmed the evolutionary distinctiveness of U. inornata (Cope 1895), an endangered species endemic to Coachella Valley in southern California. We designate a lectotype for the taxon U. “rufopunctata”, but we put its name in quotation marks to reflect its uncertain taxonomic status with respect to its neighboring species U. cowlesi and U. notata.

Abstract:
The island of Cyprus hosts a rich diversity of reptiles, including several endemic species. Reptiles are morecommon in Mediterranean-type shrubland and other open habitats in Cyprus, although riparian formations offeradditional cover and food sources, especially during dry, hot summers. Riparian habitats are often very heterogeneous,an attribute that can be important for lizards since they can utilize a variety of microhabitats crucial for different aspectsof their ecology. Nevertheless, reptilian diversity in riparian systems remains understudied and Cyprus is no exception.The aim of this study was to compare lizard diversity and abundance patterns across seasons and elevations, as well astheir relationships with habitat heterogeneity and protected status of areas along riverbanks, as expressed by presencein or out of Natura 2000 sites. We examined the effects that these factors can have on lizard communities by studyingthree rivers that exhibit variations in environmental conditions. Additionally, we evaluated separately the abundancesof four common species (Snake-eyed Lizard, Ophisops elegans; Troodos Rock Lizard, Phoenicolacerta troodica; CyprusRock Agama, Laudakia cypriaca; and Schreiber’s Fringe-toed Lizard, Acanthodactylus schreiberi) while recording in riparian habitats seven of the 11 Cypriot species of lizards. Diversity and richness were not significantly associated withany of the explanatory variables examined (season, elevation, habitat heterogeneity, and protected status). Moreover,we found no relationship between the abundances of each of the four species and habitat heterogeneity, even thoughthey responded differently to elevation, season, and protected status. Our results suggest that lizard diversity in ripariansystems is high compared to the total number of lizard species found on Cyprus, reaching 60% of the overall richness.

Abstract:
Surveys dedicated to better describing the distribution of <em>Uma scoparia</em> in Arizona are reported. These extend this species' distribution in La Paz County, Arizona, 20 km further to the south than previously described. Six records on the outside of a confused range are presented alongside data from 170 captures within this range. This species is well known from California but its Arizona distribution is little understood and less well studied than other members of its genus. Concern about the conservation status of the disjunct Arizona population makes this report valuable to resource managers. Lizards were observed with ease and in large numbers at nearly all sites surveyed.

Abstract:
Patterns of morphological and genetic diversity within the fringe-toed lizards of the genus Acanthodactylus have puzzled systematists since the first assessments, and none more so than the Acanthodactylus erythrurus complex. A recent study combining multi-locus sequence data and morphological characters partially resolved the situation, identifying two new species in the southern part of the range in Morocco, but leaving an unresolved “Ibero-Moroccan” clade containing much of the genetic and morphological diversity. Here we sequenced a mitochondrial marker for new samples from across much of the distribution. Our data notably increase the known ranges of various species and lineages found in Morocco, and indicate a divergent genetic lineage within one of the newly described species. While far greater numbers of genetic markers will be needed to resolve taxonomic questions, greater geographic sampling is also still needed both to delimit the species, and to identify regions where potential genetic admixture may occur.

Abstract:
Uma notata in the Mohawk Dunes had population densities in good habitat of 15-17 lizards/ha. Testis volumes peaked in April-May and declined to low levels by August. Egg production peaked in May during 1995 but did not occur in spring 1996. Minimum convex polygon home range estimates were 530 (±70 SE) m² for 2 adult males and 228 (±82) m² for 8 adult females. Adjusted for sample size bias, these estimates were 994 (±422) and 774 (±302) m², respectively. Subadults had smaller home ranges. Uma notata actively used perennial plants as escape cover, preferentially selecting Ambrosia dumosa. I found significant use of plant materials in Uma notata diet with both ontogenetic and seasonal shifts in proportions of plant items. Their diet included 65 taxa of arthropods from 39 families, along with 13 plant species in 7 families. I also studied survival rates, tail loss, substrate selection, and thermal effects.
