What geckos are–an ecological-biogeographic perspective
S Meiri - Israel Journal of Ecology and Evolution, 2019 - brill.com
Geckos are a hyper-diverse, ancient, and globally distributed group. They have diverged
early from other squamates and thus can be expected to differ from them along multiple …
