Reptiles are polyphyletic, and previous studies of renal anatomy and physiology in reptiles have covered a wide diversity of species of different phylogeny and habitat. To date, no study has examined the renal morphology and function of a group of closely related reptiles from different environments, yet this design has a number of advantages. Firstly, phylogenetic effects are reduced while adaptive specialisations in renal function or structure can be elucidated, and secondly, the variation in renal form and function between closely related species may be quantified in an effort to appreciate

Male growth is best described by a von Bertalanffy growth model and female growth by a logistic growth model. This sexual dimorphism is correlated with greater relative surface activity and lower survivorship of juvenile males when compared to juvenile females. Early-hatching (first clutch) offspring exhibit greater body size and survivorship compared to late-hatching (second clutch) offspring. (Abstract shortened with permission of author.)

[Truncated abstract] In ecomorphological or ecophysiological studies, variation in `design? traits (e.g. size, morphology and physiology) is thought to determine variation in ecologically-relevant performance traits, which in turn determines fitness in a particular habitat (Arnold 1983). Thus, natural selection is thought to act most directly on intermediate traits such as measures of locomotory performance. This thesis examined this process in the closely related group of Australian varanids lizards (Squamata: Varanidae). Phylogenetically, varanids are divided into three major clades. Size (m

The phenotypes of hatchling reptiles are influenced by the environmental conditions that embryos experience during incubation, by yolk invested into the egg, and by the genetic contributions of the parents. Phenotypic traits are influenced by these factors in ways that potentially affect the fitness of hatchlings. The physical conditions that embryos experience within the nest affects development, hatching success, and hatchling phenotypes. Thus, the nest site that a female selects can influence the survival of her offspring as well as her overall fitness. In Chapter 1, I addressed this is

The theory of adaptive radiation predicts that evolutionary diversification occurs when alternative phenotypes confer fitness advantages to different subsets of the same species facing divergent natural selection. A widespread outcome of this process is the evolution of new species (speciation). When natural selection imposes antagonistic fitness effects between the sexes of the same population, adaptive radiation may instead result in the evolution of ecological sexual dimorphism by disruptive selection.

Explaining spatial and temporal variation in the abundance of species is one of the primary goals of ecology.

However, habitat selection models assume there is a reduction in individual fitness as population density increases due to increased competition between individuals.

Foraging mode is repeatedly invoked as a powerful and pervasive force in snake evolution, because active foragers and ambushers differ in many significant morphological, physiological, and behavioural characteristics. However, foraging mode is highly conservative phylogenetically in snakes, and most taxa that have been studied in any detail belong to one of two families: viperids (which almost all hunt by ambush) and colubrids (which are mostly active searchers). Therefore, it is difficult to know if the observed differences result from disparate foraging modes or from divergent evolutionary

In many reptile species, offspring sex is determined by the temperature these animals experience during embryogenesis, rather than by genetic factors passed from parents to offspring (e.g., sex chromosomes).

The most plausible suggestion in this regard (the Charnov-Bull model) proposes that TSD enhances maternal fitness when nest temperature has a differential impact on the fitness of sons versus daughters, s
