Age and annual growth rate cause spatial variation in body size in Phrynocephalus przewalskii (Agamid)

Abstract Whether or not biogeographic rules dealing with spatial patterns of animal body sizes are valid for ectotherms is controversial. As the ectotherms grow all their lives, we explored the role of age and annual growth rate in body size variation in Phrynocephalus przewalskii in northern China....
