Life-history variation in lacertid lizards

Sažetak

The life history of an organism is the combination of age-specific survival probabilities and fecundities it displays in its natural environment. Hence, an organism's life history is characterised by its age and size at maturity, frequency of reproduction, clutch or litter size, size of eggs and hatchlings, and survivorship at different life stages (as embryos, neonates, immatures, adults). Variation in these traits can be studied at different levels: within a population, among populations of a single species, and among different species. I here give an overview of studies that explored life history variation in European lacertid lizards.
