“…Thus juveniles would be found from August to November, but sampling throughout the year would be necessary to confirm this pattern. Food supply may not be a limiting factor in the dry season, as it would be advantageous for the offspring spawning at a time with greater prey availability (TELFORD 1971, MESQUITA et al 2006. Nevertheless, the presence of adequate microenvironments for the eggs to develop may also be con- …”

“…Preference for open habitats in this species is well established (VANZOLINI 1988, MESQUITA et al 2006, NOGUEIRA et al 2009). In fact, even in the Atlantic Forest, M. maximiliani is usually found in association with open formations such as restingas (FREIRE 1996, SILVA et al 2006 or forest edges (RODRIGUES 1996), being rarely found inside rainforests (NOGUEIRA et al 2009, MOURA et al 2010.…”

“…Este estudo complementa informações anteriores obtidas na área (e.g., Vitt et al 2005, Mesquita et al 2006, Nogueira 2006, Vitt et al 2007) e preenche importante lacuna de informação, apresentando dados robustos sobre a riqueza, organização e relações faunísticas da comunidade de répteis da região.…”

“…Isopods have also been reported as the main prey item in the diet of other gymnophthalmids such as Leposoma scincoides Spix, 1825 in a Brazilian Atlantic Forest area in the state of Espírito Santo (TEIXEIRA & FONSECA 2003), and Ptychoglossus bicolor (Werner, 1916) in a coffee plantation in Colombia (ANAYA-ROJAS et al 2010). However, judging from most dietary surveys so far carried out on gymnophthalmids, it seems that spiders and orthopterans are, in general, the predominant prey types in the diets of such lizards (e.g., DUELLMAN 1978, VITT 1995, VITT & ZANI 1998, VITT et al 1998a,b, 2003, VIEIRA et al 2000, ROCHA & RODRIGUES 2005, MESQUITA et al 2006a,b, DOAN 2008.…”
