Abstract
Environmental seasonality affects the biology and ecology of lizards, however, they may respond depending of the habitat characteristics. Until now, there are not studies about the effect of seasonality in insular lizard populations and its comparison with mainland populations. In our work we measured seasonality effects upon habitat use and activity of 2 Anolis nebulosus lizard populations, 1 insular and 1 continental, in Jalisco coast, Mexico. Our results suggest that seasonal fluctuations in environmental temperature and relative humidity affect perch use and activity of both populations; however, insular population was more active and differs in habitat use from the continental population, suggesting that environmental and ecological conditions on the island are less aggressive for Anolis nebulosus lizard, when compare with the continental population.
