THE INFLUENCE OF NATURAL INCUBATION ENVIRONMENTS ON THE PHENOTYPIC TRAITS OF HATCHLING LIZARDS
- R. Shine, M. Elphick, P. Harlow
- Biology
- 1 December 1997
Laboratory studies have shown that incubation environments can affect mor- phological and behavioral phenotypes of hatchling lizards, but the relevance of this result to natural populations remains… Expand
Co‐occurrence of multiple, supposedly incompatible modes of sex determination in a lizard population
- R. Shine, M. Elphick, S. Donnellan
- Biology
- 1 July 2002
R. Shine,* M. J. Elphick and S. Donnellan Biological Sciences A08, University of Sydney, NSW 2006, Australia Evolutionary Biology, South Australian Museum, Adelaide SA 5000, Australia… Expand
Longterm e ff ects of incubation temperatures on the morphology and locomotor performance of hatchling lizards ( Bassiana duperreyi , Scincidae )
- M. Elphick, R. Shine
- 1998
The phenotypes of hatchling reptiles are known to be affected by the thermal environments they experience during incubation, but the evolutionary and ecological significance of this phenotypic… Expand
Movements, Mating, and Dispersal of Red-Sided Gartersnakes (Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis) from a Communal Den in Manitoba
- R. Shine, M. Elphick, P. Harlow, I. Moore, M. Lemaster, R. Mason
- Biology
- Copeia
- 1 February 2001
Abstract We studied the spring emergence of red-sided gartersnakes (Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis) from a large communal den in Manitoba to clarify the context in which courtship and mating occur.… Expand
THE INFLUENCE OF NEST TEMPERATURES AND MATERNAL BROODING ON HATCHLING PHENOTYPES IN WATER PYTHONS
- R. Shine, T. Madsen, M. Elphick, P. Harlow
- Biology
- 1 September 1997
Previous work on phenotypic plasticity in hatchling reptiles has dealt almost exclusively with lizards and turtles from temperate zone habitats, in taxa where the only maternal control over… Expand
Nesting lizards (Bassiana duperreyi) compensate partly, but not completely, for climate change.
- Rory S Telemeco, M. Elphick, R. Shine
- Biology, Medicine
- Ecology
- 2009
Species in which ambient temperatures directly determine offspring sex may be at particular risk as global climates change. Whether or not climate change affects sex ratio depends upon the… Expand
A novel foraging mode in snakes: browsing by the sea snake Emydocephalus annulatus (Serpentes, Hydrophiidae)
- R. Shine, X. Bonnet, M. Elphick, E. Barrott
- Biology
- 1 February 2004
Summary
1
Ecologists often ascribe considerable importance to traits that are widespread within a specific lineage but rarely seen in other kinds of organisms. Unfortunately, such hypotheses… Expand
SOME LIKE IT HOT: EFFECTS OF FOREST CLEARING ON NEST TEMPERATURES OF MONTANE REPTILES
- R. Shine, E. Barrott, M. Elphick
- 1 October 2002
Global climate change may affect the upper elevational limits of distribution of montane organisms, especially if those limits are set directly by temperature. Oviparous (egg-laying) reptiles are… Expand
The effect of short-term weather fluctuations on temperatures inside lizard nests, and on the phenotypic traits of hatchling lizards
- R. Shine, M. Elphick
- 2001
Can short-term stochastic variation in local weather conditions modify the thermal conditions inside lizard nests, and thus (potentially) the developmental rates, hatching success, and phenotypic… Expand
