Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the ecological relationships of seventeen out of Costa Rica's known twenty-five species of anole lizards. Many of the lizards in this region coexist in the same area and use the same resources, so their interactions are extraordinarily varied and range across all degrees of competition. The author finds that the selective pressure exerted by mutual competition on species occupying the same habitat niches differs based on variables such as size, aggressiveness, population density, and the ratio of sympatric to allopatric areas in overall geographic ranges. This book offers not only an exciting look at the natural history of Costa Rican anoles but also a valuable opportunity to understand the complex ecological dynamics that have shaped the evolution of these remarkable creatures. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
