They are studied at multiple spatial and temporal scales, from the individual to the community level. This book, authored by expert contributors from around the world, explores behaviors underlying the evolution and adaptation of these organisms. It covers conceptual, empirical, and methodological approaches to the understanding of the role that natural and sexual selection play in molding the behavioral traits of lizards. \u003cbr\u003eThis thorough, illustrated reference should stimulate discussion of the conceptual and methodological approaches for studying the behavioral traits of these fascinating and highly diverse vertebrates.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Vincent Bels\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367655853\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367655853\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 428\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.87d","brand":"Vincent Bels","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46383975235839,"sku":"9780367655853","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_64b6fad5-a192-42dd-824c-0a981627aef7.jpg?v=1733282267","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/behavior-of-lizards-vincent-bels-9780367655853","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
