Physiological and Ecological Constraints on the Evolution of Viviparity in Sceloporine Lizards
The purpose of this study was to evaluate putative physiological and ecological constraints on the evolution of viviparity in sceloporine lizards. In Chapters one and two, I investigated the role of in utero oxygen availability as a constraint on the capacity to support embryonic development during...
