Incidencia de la arquitectura vegetal en la comunidad de las lagartijas (sauria) en cuatro zonas de la ESPAM MFL

Ecuador is one of the most biodiversity countries in the world and this biological wealth must be preserved; As a result of climate change and the intensification of agricultural activity many reptile populations are in sharp decline. The province of Manabí is not an exception to this process of agricultural expansion where there has been a degradation of the local fauna. The present study was able to identify key elements for the conservation of the herpetofauna using the saurian community as bioindicators, in central areas of CIIDEA, of the Polytechnic Superior School of Agriculture of Manabí "MFL" selecting four areas of study: edge of forest, fence (Septum of mixed vegetation), maizal and pastizal evaluating the incidence of vegetal architecture on the lizards community (Saurian). A descriptive investigation of the characteristics of each of the species found in the different study areas was carried out. Fall traps were also used for identification, ICF measurement and ectoparasites counting. The study establishes that in the four sampling zones there is a significant effect of two factors, both species and habitat, where it can be clearly demonstrated that there is a predominant species Stenocercus Iridescens that was present in all the sampled habitats.
