I can't edit it for whatever reason but the caption on the egg photo has a typo:
`Two pictures taken '''on''' an eastern fence lizard egg and layered onto one image.`
Replace '''on''' with '''of'''.

: I've changed it to "Two pictures of an [[eastern fence lizard]] egg layered onto one image", which is more succinct. I don't understand what the difference between the two images is. Are they top and bottom images showing different colours or is the difference something to do with the direction of illumination (the text in the image). Is there any reason for the caption saying more than "Egg of [[eastern fence lizard]]"?

Recommend reviewing and editing the section about darker skin color being useful for rejection of UV light rays. Most lizards the darker color shift goes from a greenish to a brownish, which indicates reflection of predominantly red light, which would be more at the infrared or thermal end of the visible spectrum. In other cases, just a general darkening of the skin, to black for example, would indicate that less light of any visible wavelength is being reflected, and therefore more is being absorbed, which would heat the lizard.


So, I recommend review of that section associating darker skin with thermal regulation, which may be correct, but attributing that to ultraviolet (UV) rays seems unsupported. [[Special:Contributions/72.15.91.119|72.15.91.119]] ([[User talk:72.15.91.119|talk]]) 16:42, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Why are snakes included in the "Cladistically included but traditionally excluded taxa"

[edit]

The term Lizard is for any squamate reptile specifically EXCLUDING snakes. Why is it listed. Xenomire (talk) 13:26, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What that clumsy phrase was trying to say is that snakes are cladistically included in Squamata but not considered lizards. But it doesn't make sense to state this in a taxobox for lizards. I've changed the header to "Squamates that are not considered lizards" to make it clearer.  —  Jts1882 | talk  14:07, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
