OBSERVATIONS OF PREDATION, DIET, AND REPRODUCTION OF HOLCOSUS GAIGEAE (SQUAMATA: TEIIDAE)

Abstract

— Holcosus gaigeae is a small-sized lizard with a moderately robust body that has restricted distribution to the Mexican portion of the Yucatan Peninsula. The information about the ecology and natural history is limited. In this work, we report observations of predation, diet, and reproduction of H. gaigeae in different portions of the states of Campeche and Yucatan, in Mexico, providing new information about the ecological aspects of this species.
