Abstract:
Geckos demonstrate a remarkable variability in sex determination systems, but our limited knowledge prohibits accurate conclusions on the evolution of sex determination in this group. Eyelid geckos (Eublepharidae) are of particular interest, as they encompass species with both environmental and genotypic sex determination. We identified for the first time the X-specific gene content in the Yucatán banded gecko, Coleonyx elegans, possessing X1X1X2X2/X1X2Y multiple sex chromosomes by comparative genome coverage analysis between sexes. The X-specific gene content of Coleonyx elegans was revealed to be partially homologous to genomic regions linked to the chicken autosomes 1, 6 and 11. A qPCR-based test was applied to validate a subset of X-specific genes by comparing the difference in gene copy numbers between sexes, and to explore the homology of sex chromosomes across eleven eublepharid, two phyllodactylid and one sphaerodactylid species. Homologous sex chromosomes are shared between Coleonyx elegans and Coleonyx mitratus, two species diverged approximately 34 million years ago, but not with other tested species. As far as we know, the X-specific gene content of Coleonyx elegans / Coleonyx mitratus was never involved in the sex chromosomes of other gecko lineages, indicating that the sex chromosomes in this clade of eublepharid geckos evolved independently.

Abstract:
A new species of gekkonid lizard, Gekko nutaphandi, is described from Kanchanaburi Province in central western Thailand. It is a member of the large-bodied Gekko gecko group and within this group is probably most closely related to G. siamensis Grossmann & Ulber, 1990 with which it shares a similar dorsal pattern of transverse series of white spots on a drab background. It differs from G. siamensis in its greater number of precloacal pores, lower number of dorsal tubercle rows, and in having red (versus green) eyes. Comparisons are also made with several other nominal Gekko species currently synonymized with G. gecko and with undescribed, but well-characterized “forms” of G. gecko. The new species is one of many recently described Southeast Asian geckos that appears to be restricted to limestone habitats and their surroundings.

Abstract:
The Iraqi (Iraqui) Eyelid Gecko Eublepharis angramainyu Anderson et Leviton, 1966 was previously recorded from two localities in northeastern Iraq; however, its current distribution and status is still enigmatic. More recently, new records of the Iraqi Eyelid Gecko from three distinct localities were made. A live adult male specimen was collected from Mandli, Diyala Province in eastern Iraq in April 2018, an adult individual was killed and reported from Al-Qayyarah, Nineveh (Mosul) Province in northern Iraq in June 2018, and three individuals were reported from Dagalah, Erbil Province in northeastern Iraq (Kurdistan Region) in August 2018 from which a live juvenile specimen was collected. The morphometric measurements, pholidosis characters, and habitat description of the two live specimens are presented.

Abstract:
The New Zealand endemic gecko genus, Mokopirirakau, is notable for its ecology, with some species inhabiting extreme alpine environments, as well as for the large number of geographically circumscribed, species-level lineages awaiting formal description. In, 2018, a population superficially similar in colour and morphology to the black-eyed gecko (M. kahutarae) was discovered in alpine greywacke rock outcrops in the Oteake Conservation Park, North Otago, ~400 km south of the nearest M. kahutarae populations in the upper South Island. Genetic and morphological data indicate that this population is distinct, sister to a clade comprising M. granulatus and M. kahutarae. It can be distinguished from all but one Mokopirirakau species by colour pattern, and from M. kahutarae by smaller adult body size, eye and supraciliary characters, mouth and throat colour, ventral scale row count, tail length, toe shape, and lamellar count. Using an integrated taxonomic approach, we here formally describe this form as a new species, M. galaxias sp. nov., as well as discuss its ecology, likely distribution (particularly with respect to M. kahutarae), and potential conservation issues and requirements. Mokopirirakau galaxias sp. nov. should be considered “Threatened—Nationally Endangered” (qualifiers Data Poor) in the New Zealand Threat Classification System due to the low abundance and restricted known distribution, with potential threats from invasive predatory mammals and climate change. It should be considered Data Deficient in the IUCN Red List system.

Abstract:
An interspecies hybridization is usually viewed from two sides - either as mistakes in a reproduction resulting in decrease of a hybrids fitness (e. g. loss or decrease of viability and fertility) or as a mechanism helping animals adaptively respond to environmental changes resulting in higher fitness. Fitness is usually represented as a set of correlates. One of the correlates is an organism performance which is represented by a set of maximal values from measured physical activities. This thesis focuses on the evaluation of the endurance and the bite force for gecko species E. macularius and E. angramayniu, their interspecies hybrids and intraspecies hybrids to determine their performance. The results show differences in the bite force among each of the tested groups. E. macularius has the lowest bite force, while the highest bite force was measured in E. angramayniu. The bite force of interspecies hybrids is intermediate in comparison to the parent species. Nevertheless, intraspecies hybrids of large form and white form of E. macularius exceeds their parents in measured bite force. The variability in bite force suggests a positive effect of hybridization on fitness. The bite force differences between the large form and the white form of E. macularius support the hypothesis that there exist more...

Abstract:
Australia is a land of many unique animals, some of which are active only during the cooler evening and night-time and so are rarely seen. These are the after dark animals so widespread yet so little noticed by humans, whether in our backyards, the arid desert, woodlands or rainforest. Australian Wildlife After Dark brings this hidden fauna into the light. The after dark fauna includes a surprising diversity of familiar (and some not-so-familiar) species, from cockroaches, moths and spiders through to bandicoots, bats and birds – and then some. Each example is described in a unique, friendly style by Martyn Robinson, familiar to many Australians through his frequent media appearances on ABC Radio and in Burke’s Backyard magazine, and Bruce Thomson, an internationally renowned wildlife photographer and bat researcher. The book includes stunning photography and boxes that highlight selected topics, such as the ‘windscreen wiper’ eyelids of geckoes and the strategies used by night-time plants to attract pollinators. Also included are practical tips on finding nocturnal wildlife, a glossary of scientific terms and a short bibliography. The book will appeal to a general family audience, wildlife enthusiasts, bushwalkers, amateur naturalists, national parks lovers, natural history museum visitors, libraries, gift book buyers and international visitors to Australia.
