New species and records of scale mites (Acari: Pterygosomatidae) from Arabian Agamid lizards (Squamata: Agamidae).
Two new species of pterygosomatid mites parasitizing lizards of the family Agamidae are described: Pterygosoma aqabensis sp. nov. from Pseudotrapelus aqabensis Melnikov et al. and Pterygosoma dhofarensis sp.nov. from Pseudotrapelus dhofarensis Melnikov and Pierson both from Arabian Peninsula. Pterygosoma aqabensis sp. nov. is most closely related to P. dhofarensis sp. nov. but differs by the pr...
متن کاملREPRODUCTIVE ECOLOGY OF THE MOUNTAIN DRAGON, RANKINIA (TYMPANOCRYPTlS) DIEMENSIS (REPTILIA: SQUAMATA: AGAMIDAE) IN TASMANIA
The mountain dragon, Rankinta (7ympanocryptis) diemensis (Gray, 1841), is the only member of the Agamidae in Tasmania. It occurs in some of the coldest regions occupied by any dragon in Australia, and is found in a variety of habitats ranging from coastal heath to alpine scrub. This paper examines the reproductive ecology of R. diemensis in the most southerly range of its distribution, providin...
متن کاملTaxonomic assessment of Diporiphora (Reptilia: Agamidae) dragon lizards from the western arid zone of Australia
Members of the genus Diporiphora are slender perching agamid lizards from Australasia, with a conservative morphology and some outstanding taxonomic issues. Here we assess morphological variation in the morphologically similar D. pindan, D. valens, and D. winneckei from the western deserts of Australia. A reassessment of morphological differences that included the presence or absence of a gular...
متن کاملMeasures of synteny conservation between species pairs.
Measures of conserved synteny are important for estimating the relative rates of chromosomal evolution in various lineages. We present a natural way to view the synteny conservation between two species from an Oxford grid--an r x c table summarizing the number of orthologous genes on each of the chromosomes 1 through r of the first species that are on each of the chromosomes 1 through c of the ...
متن کاملSynteny conservation of chicken macrochromosomes 1-10 in different avian lineages revealed by cross-species chromosome painting.
Cross-species chromosome painting can directly visualize syntenies between diverged karyotypes and, thus, increase our knowledge on avian genome evolution. DNA libraries of chicken (Gallus gallus, GGA) macrochromosomes 1 to 10 were hybridized to metaphase spreads of 9 different species from 3 different orders (Anseriformes, Gruiformes and Passeriformes). Depending on the analyzed species, GGA1-...
