In the first of three experiments, Gould's monitor lizards Vurunus gouldii (n = 8) and Gila monsters Heloderrna suspecturn (n = 8) were tested to determine whether a postingestion elevation in tongue-flick rate (PETF) occurred. Based on analysis of numbers of tongue-flicks during 20 successive minut
The claw of lizards is largely composed of beta-keratins, also referred to as keratin-associated betaproteins. Recently, we have reported that the genome of the lizard Anolis carolinensis contains alpha keratin genes homologous to hair keratins typical of hairs and claws of mammals. Molecular and im
