The density and abundance of juvenile Varanus exanthematicus (Sauria: Varanidae) in the coastal plain of Ghana

The density and abundance of juvenile Varanus exanthematicus (Sauria: Varanidae) in the coastal... AbstractThe density and abundance of Varanus exanthematicus was measured by single searches and markrecapture studies at sites in the Great Accra Region of Ghana. One hour search effort yielded a mean of 0.42 lizards in August/September 1994 and 0.87 lizards in March/April 1996. Mark-recapture results indicated a density of 357 juveniles per km2 in mixed farmland and grassland habitats. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Amphibia-Reptilia Brill
