Lucasium steindachneri ( Inglês )

fornecido por wikipedia EN

Lucasium steindachneri, commonly called the box-patterned gecko or Steindachner's gecko, is a species of nocturnal, medium-sized lizard in the family Diplodactylidae. The species has a pale strip with three patches of brown along its back.[3] This gecko is terrestrial and only found in arid and semi-arid areas of continental Australia.[4]

Etymology

The specific name, steindachneri, is in honor of Austrian herpetologist Franz Steindachner.[5]

Description

The box-patterned gecko is a smooth-scaled reptile which grows to a maximum snout-to-vent length (SVL) of 59 mm (2.3 in), but on average grows to 45 mm (1.8 in) SVL.[6] It has large circular eyes with vertical pupils, and lacks moveable eyelids.[3] Each eye is covered by a clear scale. To clean its eyes it wipes its tongue over these clear scales.[3] The box-patterned gecko can be distinguished by a pale dorsal strip running from its eyes down to the base of the tail, containing three oval patches of dark brown colour.[6] It has pale spots and flecks along its sides and a long slender tail, which makes up 70% of its total length.[4] The underneath side of the body and the underneath sides of the limbs are whitish. The feet have five digits with circular discs and large singular terminal plates.[3]

Feeding

The box-patterned gecko feeds on a varying array of arthropods such as insects, spiders and scorpions during the night.[3]

Behaviour

When D. steindachneri is threatened or captured, it will make a barking or hissing sound, open its mouth, and jump towards the predator.[3] If this does not scare the intruder off, it will drop its tail, distracting the predator, and allowing the gecko to escape.[3]

Reproduction

A sexually mature female of D. steindachneri will lay one to two eggs during one year.[4]

Geographic range and habitat

The box-patterned gecko is distributed across arid and semi-arid areas of Australia within Queensland, New South Wales, and a small patch of eastern South Australia and the Northern Territory.[3] This is commonly dry open woodlands, forests, and mallee country with heavy or stony soils.[6] During the day it shelters in crevices in the ground, and it is most often found in disused insect holes.[6] At night it emerges from its hole to forage for food.

Taxonomy

The family Diplodactylidae comprises many species in Australia which are normally no larger than 150 mm (5.9 in) long with five digits that bear circular toe pads.[6][4]

사각무늬도마뱀붙이 ( Coreano )

fornecido por wikipedia 한국어 위키백과

Lucasium steindachneri 14712301.jpg

사각무늬도마뱀붙이(Lucasium steindachneri), 일명 박스패턴 게코(box-patterned gecko), 슈타인다흐너 게코(Steindachner's gecko)는 등을 따라 옅은 줄무늬와 세 조각의 갈색 타원형 무늬가 난 중형 야행성 도마뱀붙이류의 일이다.[1] 이 도마뱀붙이류는 지면성이며 호주 대륙의 건조, 반건조 지역에서만 발견된다.[2]

어원

종명 steindachneri는 오스트리아의 양서파충류학자 프란츠 슈타인다흐너(:en:Franz Steindachner)를 기린 것이다.[3]

형태

사각무늬는 주둥이-항문 길이가 최대 (SVL) of 59 mm (2.3 in), 평균 45 mm (1.8 in)까지 자라는 비늘이 부드러운 파충류이다.[4] 원형의 커다란 눈에는 동공이 세로로 찢어져있으며, 눈꺼풀은 존재하지 않는다.[1] 각각의 눈은 투명한 비늘로 덮여있다. 눈을 청소하기 위해 혓바닥으로 눈 위의 투명한 비늘을 핥는다.[1] 사각무늬는 눈에서부터 꼬리의 밑동까지 이어지며 짙은 갈색의 타원형 무늬 세 개가 섞여있는 옅은 의 줄무늬로 구별할 수 있다.[4] 옆구리와 길고 가는 꼬리를 따라 옅은 색깔의 점무늬가 나있으며, 그 범위는 총 길이의 70%를 차지한다.[2] 몸뚱아리와 사지의 밑부분은 흰색이다. 발가락은 각각 다섯 개씩 돋아나있으며, 빨판이 원형으로 나있고(circular disc) 큰 말단비늘(terminal scale)이 하나씩 나있다.[1]

생태

사각무늬는 밤에 곤충, 거미, 전갈 따위의 다양한 종류의 절지동물을 섭취한다.[1]

사각무늬가 위협받거나 붙잡혔을 때 짖어대거나 식식대고, 입을 활짝 벌리고, 포식자를 향해 도약한다.[1] 침입자가 겁먹지 않으면 꼬리를 스스로 끊어서 포식자의 시선을 돌리고 도망친다.[1]

성숙한 개체는 해마다 한 두개씩 산란한다.[2]

분포와 서식지

사각무늬는 호주의 퀸즐랜드주, 뉴사우스웨일스주, 사우스오스트레일리아주 동부의 일부 지역, 노던준주의 건조, 반건조 지역에 분포한다.[1] 이는 일반적으로 건조하고 탁 트인 삼림지대, 산림, 중토 혹은 돌이 많은 토양의 맬리지역이다.[4] 낮에는 지면의 균열에서 은신하며, 버려진 벌레구멍에서 제일 흔하게 발견된다.[4] 낮에는 은신처에서 기어나와 먹이를 찾아나선다.
