A specimen of Enyalius perditus Jackson, 1978 collected in a pitfall trap installed at the Parque Estadual do Ibitipoca, Municipality of Lima Duarte, State of Minas Gerais, Brazil, on 19 March 1997, showed a transversal rupture of the skin, on dorsum of posterior region of the head, just joining the ear openings. In captivity, the continuance of the shedding scain spent approxima-tely one hour and forty minutes. The pieces of skin were removed in the sequence: head, venter, arms and flanks, legs, tail, and finally the tip of the fingers. The removed skin was eaten at the end of each stage. |

Aspectos da ecologia de Tropidurus torquatus foram estudados mensalmente na restinga de Guriri, São Mateus, Norte do Espírito Santo, de fevereiro de 1996 a março de 1997. Foram coletados 108 exemplares com arma de pressão, sendo 45 machos, 56 fêmeas e 7 exemplares cujo sexo não foi identificado. O comprimento rostro-anal no total dos exemplares variou de 26,0 a 101,8 mm (média = 61,7 mm; DP = 15,1). O peso no total dos exemplares variou de 0,8 a 39,6 g (média = 14,6 g; DP = 10,4). Em freqüência de ocorrência, os itens alimentares que predominaram na dieta de T. torquatus foram as formigas (85,7%), coleópteros (32,4%), abelhas (31,4%), cupins (22,8%), aranhas (20,9) e flores (20,0%). Em relação à freqüência numérica, os itens alimentares que predominaram... |

An inventory of the fauna of lizards was made in the dunes of Natal (Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil) and in the "restingas" (sandbanks with its associated vegetation) of Ponta de Campina (Cabedelo, Paraíba, Brazil) from October/84 to March/86. The objective was to know the composition and structure of these communities as well as to evaluate the zoogeographical importance of the spots. The samples were collected and the observations were made along of transects which were established to enable the sampling of the habitats under study in both areas. Each transect was crossed one day per month, during 14 months. The collect of lizards was made manually or through the use of a small gun, calibre 22, with ammunition of the type mustard lead. Observations were... |

A collection of snakes and frogs collected in the area of Porto Real, Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil, was bought in December 1890 and remained unidentified until now. The collection comprises 100 snakes belonging to 18 species and 152 frogs belonging to 19 species. A comparison with the herpetofauna from nearby Serra do Japi in São Paulo is made. General remarks on variation and identification are made for a number of species. Among the snakes were two specimens of Cercophis aurata (Schlegel, 1837), a species described on the basis of one specimen from Suriname, and no new specimens having been recorded until now. The new individuals cause the known area of distribution to be greatly enlarged, but such a large distribution area occurs in several other snakes... |

The sexual dimorphism in size, morphology and color of the lizard Liolaemus occipitalis Boulenger, 1885 was studied. Thirty-two adult males and twenty-eight adult females were sampled from a population in the Jardim do Éden beach, near Tramandaí, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Size related sexual dimorphism occurred in all compared body dimensions. The largest female was 59.6 mm in snout-vent length, and the largest male was 69.3 mm. Males and females also presented differences in ventral and dorsal color pattern, and in the presence of pre-cloacal pores. The results suggest that, in Liolaemus occipitalis, sexual dimorphism in size is determined by sexual selection, competition between males and by the high energetic cost for females a few months after hatching. |
