摘要

Lizards in four distantly separated populations of the gymnophthalmid lizard Neusticurus ecpleopus in the Amazon region of South America were strikingly specific in habitat and microhabitat use, being restricted to streams and swamps and living between the water line and the bank-forest interface. They were as likely to be active during cloudy periods as during sunny periods, but most individuals were not exposed to direct insolation while active. Activity occurred through much of the day, with most activity at two sites during between 11:00 and 14:30. Body temperatures were 27.0 +/- 0.02 degrees C and were correlated with substrate temperatures. Body temperatures were higher than substrate temperatures, indicating behavioral or possibly physiological thermoregulation. These lizards ate a variety of prey, but eight prey categories accounted for a major proportion of the total diet at all sites. There were differences among sites in prey type, prey size, relative prey size, and total stomach fullness. Even though there was some size variation among sites, variation in other morphological characters was more striking. Even withstanding the differences among populations in ecological and morphological characteristics, it appears that much of the ecology of N. ecpleopus is constrained by fidelity to specific habitat patches (stream banks) distributed linearly through lowland tropical forest.
