<i>Liolaemus cuyanus</i>, <i>Liolaemus darwini</i>, <i>Liolaemus olongasta</i>, <i>Liolaemus riojanus</i> : Ectoparasites
With nearly 256 species described, the South American lizards of the genus <i>Liolaemus</i> are the second most diverse among vertebrates (Avila et al. 2009. <i>Zootaxa</i> 2234:39-55; Abdala et al. 2012. <i>Cuad. Herpetol.</i> 26:215-248). However,relationships b...

| Sumario: | With nearly 256 species described, the South American lizards of the genus <i>Liolaemus</i> are the second most diverse among vertebrates (Avila et al. 2009. <i>Zootaxa</i> 2234:39-55; Abdala et al. 2012. <i>Cuad. Herpetol.</i> 26:215-248). However,relationships between mites and these lizards have received limited attention. <i>Liolaemus cuyanus</i>, <i>L. darwini</i>, <i>L. olongasta</i>, and <i>L.riojanus</i> inhabit the Talampaya National Park (TNP), located in an extensive plain of the Monte region (29.8°S, 67.833°W, WGS84; 1300 m elev.) in the center-west of La Rioja Province (Argentina), which was designated as an UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2000. Here we report novel associations of mites with these lizard species. |
