Tail bifurcation in several species of squamates of the families Liolaemidae, Tropiduridae, Phyllodactylidae and Teiidae

Caudal autotomy is a strategy widely used by lizards to escape from their predators. During the regeneration process, anomalies may arise that result in a tail with twoor more tips. Through field observations and consultation of material from scientific collections, we present new records of tail bifurcation for eight species belonging tofour lizard families.

Durante el proceso de regeneración pueden surgir anomalías que den como resultado una cola con dos o más puntas. A través de observaciones de campo y consulta de material de colecciones científicas, presentamos nuevos registros de cola bifurcada para ocho especies pertenecientes a cuatro familias de lagartos.
