Locomotor Performance and Dominance in Male Tree Lizards, Urosaurus ornatus
Robson MA and Miles DB. 2000. Locomotor Performance and Dominance in Male Tree Lizards, Urosaurus ornatus. Functional Ecology. 14(3):338-344
Journal article discussing the association between dominance behaviour and locomotor performance in male tree lizards. The hypothesis that dominance status should covary with locomotor performance was tested. Maximum sprint speed and stamina were used to measure locomotor performance, whereas aggression and submission were used to measure dominance.
