✦ Synopsis

Contractile properties and innervation patterns were determined in identified single fibers from the iliofibularis muscle of the desert iguana, Dipsosaurus dorsalis. Single fibers from both the red and white regions of the iliofibularis muscle were dissected along their length under oil and a portion was mounted on transducers for determination of maximum isometric

## Abstract Lizard skeletal muscle fiber types were investigated inthe iliofibularis (IF) muscle of the desert iguana (__Dipsosaurus dorsalis__). Three fiber types were identified based on histochemical staining for myosin ATPase (mATPase), succinic dehydrogenase (SDH), and αglycerophosphate dehydr
