| | Cyclura Care Sheet |
| | Even so, factors such as low fertility rate, high number of introduced predators, and slow maturation to adulthood make it is nearly impossible for many Cyclura to maintain their numbers without serious conservation efforts and/or breeding facilities that introduce captive bred Cyclura into the wild. | | | As captives, they are extremely hardy and long lived if given proper care, and depending on the species, many become very tame. | | | In the wild, Cyclura will not reach sexual maturity until they are about 5-9 years old! |

| | LIZARD KARYOTYPES FROM THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS |
| | MONTANUCCI, R. Analysis of hybridization between Crotaphytus wislizenii and Crotaphytus silus (Sauria, Iguanidae) in California. | | | The iguanine species in the Galapagos belong to the endemic genera Amblyrhynchus (one species, the marine iguana) and Conolophus (two species of land iguanas). | | | Analysis of karyotypic and systematic information suggests a causal relationship between karyotypic differentiation and the rapid proliferation of new species, such that the need for geographic isolation seems to be minimized bv the chromosomal differentiation. |

| | The true iguanas are among the largest of the iguanians, ranging from 14 cm snout-vent length (Dipsosaurus) to more than two meters in Iguana iguana. | | | Until recently, almost 1,000 species were placed in Iguanidae (sensu lato), but Frost and Etheridge's (1989) analysis of iguanian systematics suggested eight distinct clades within that large family. | | | Together with the other seven families previously placed in Iguanidae, iguanids (sensu stricto) have pleurodont teeth, which distinguishes them from other members of the Iguania (agamids and chamaeleons). |

| | Iguanidae |
| | While the debate continues, we herein regard the traditional Iguanidae as such, because there is considerable evidence to support such recognition, and because such recognition simplifies the taxonomy of the group. | | | At that time, two herpetologists, Frost and Etheridge, divided the large family as it was traditionally known into several smaller families. | | | Previously, these small families had been ranked as subfamilies. |

| | This is the landmark paper that broke up the huge lizard family Iguanaidae (or Iguanidae, depending upon whom you ask) into seven smaller families. | | | Most scientific herpetological literature has adopted this new organization, and so have I. Unfortunately this paper offers no common names for the new families, and Frank and Ramus still use the monolithic Iguanaidae, so I've had to scrounge the web for common names. |
