RAMIREZ-JARAMILLO, Salomón M.. Tail condition in two endemic saurians from the northern Andes of Ecuador and first record of bifurcated tails. Caldasia [online]. 2022, vol.44, n.1, pp.200-202. Epub 29-Abr-2022. ISSN 0366-5232. https://doi.org/10.15446/caldasia.v44n1.77023.
The tail is characterized in two sympatric species of endemic saurians from Ecuador. We used glue traps in eight transects of 500 m distance and fall traps of 80x80x80 cm. The condition tails intact, absent, and regenerated were studied. Between 2012 and 2014 we captured 138 individuals, 125 individuals belong to Stenocercus guentheri and thirteen to Pholidobolus montium. About 61 % of the individuals had an intact tail. For the first time, we reported tail bifurcation in Stenocercus guentheri; three cases were observed with this condition.
