Body temperatures of herbivorous Liolaemidae compared with other herbivorous lizards and lizards generally. Results are based on previous studies and this study (ref. 9 and Data Set 1). Herbivorous lizards generally maintain higher body temperatures than nonherbivorous species (9, 11, 12, 19), and body temperatures of herbivorous liolaemids are similar to those of other herbivorous lizards.
