The four species of Sceloporus at the
locality appeared to divide up the
habitat in the area as follows.
Sceloporus spinosus and Sceloporus jarrovi
are the two largest species and S. variabilis
and S. scalaris are smaller. Sceloporus spinosus
appeared to be the most abundant, and it
was also the most widespread -- and the most
ecologically diverse, i.e., it occurred throughout
the locality at both trees & rocks. Sceloporus jarrovi
occurred only on rocks in the upper part of the
locality. Sceloporus variabilis occurred at both
such trees in the upper part of the locality.
Sceloporus scalaris was the least common and was found
only on the ground & rocks in the lower, more open
part of the locality.
