Interaction of morphology, thermal physiology and burrowing performance during the evolution of fossoriality in Gymnophthalmini lizards

Summary The evolution of fossoriality in Squamata often leads to a phenotypic syndrome involving snake‐like body form, relatively low preferred temperature (TP) and low critical maximum temperatures (CTmax). However, how traits interacted among them and with the environment during the evolution of s...
