Abstract

Diving behavior is common among lizards for predator avoidance and foraging purposes. Understanding the factors influencing the maximum dive duration of diving lizards is crucial for comprehending their ecological strategies and survival mechanisms. This study aims to investigate the relationship between the maximum dive duration of diving lizards and their life history traits and environmental factors. The study collected diving data from a total of 52 lizard species, employed phylogenetic generalized least squares models, Markov chain Monte Carlo generalized linear mixed models, and phylogenetic path analysis methods. Our findings revealed significant correlations between maximum dive duration and key life history traits, including body weight, snout-vent length, longevity, tail length, and clutch size. Notably, after controlling for snout-vent length, tail length showed a significant negative correlation, while clutch size showed a significant positive correlation with maximum dive duration. In conclusion, our study sheds light on the crucial role of life history traits in shaping the maximum dive duration of diving lizards, offering valuable insights into their ecological adaptations and survival strategies.

潜水蜥蜴的最长潜水时间及其影响因素

潜水行为在蜥蜴中很常见，用于躲避捕食者和觅食。了解影响潜蜥最长潜水时间的因素对理解其生态策略和生存机制至关重要。本研究旨在探讨潜蜥的最长潜水时间与其生活史特征和环境因素之间的关系。研究共收集了52种蜥蜴的潜水数据，采用了系统发育广义最小二乘法模型、马尔科夫链蒙特卡洛广义线性混合模型和系统发育路径分析方法。我们的研究结果表明，最大潜水持续时间与主要生活史特征（包括体重、鼻孔长度、寿命、尾长和产仔数）之间存在明显的相关性。值得注意的是，在控制了鼻孔长度之后，尾长与最大潜泳持续时间呈显著负相关，而离群大小与最大潜泳持续时间呈显著正相关。总之，我们的研究揭示了生活史特征在潜蜥最大潜泳持续时间中的关键作用，为了解其生态适应和生存策略提供了宝贵的信息。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
