Microlophus tigris individuals were active in a variety of microhabitats, from bushes and vegetation debris to prehispanic bricks (adobes) and litter, during the hottest hour of the day. Mean body temperature (29,4 ºC) was similar to body temperature observed in a natural population from Lomas de Lachay, although in Parque de Las Leyendas, substrate temperature was higher than air temperature, probably related to thermal properties of materials used as microhabitats and to seasonal differences. We encouraged the Zoo to takes conservation measures to protect this endangered wild population of lizard in Lima city. 2011 artículo científico 1561-0837 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=195022441017 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1950 Revista Peruana de Biología application/pdf Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos Revista Peruana de Biología (Perú) Num.3 Vol.18 |
