Abstract Tuatara are the sole extant species in the reptile order Rhynchocephalia. They are ecologically and evolutionarily unique, having been isolated geographically for ~84 million years and evolutionarily from their closest living relatives for ~

Successful reproduction is critical to the persistence of at-risk species; however, reproductive characteristics are understudied in many wild species. New Zealand's endemic tuatara (Sphenodon punctatus), the sole surviving member of the reptile orde

Understanding the mechanisms underlying population declines is critical for preventing the extinction of endangered populations. Positive feedbacks can hasten the process of collapse and create an 'extinction vortex,' particularly in small, isolated

The nest environment for eggs of reptiles has lifelong implications for offspring performance and success, and, ultimately, for population viability and species distributions. However, understanding the various abiotic and biotic drivers of nesting i

Most reptiles thermoregulate to achieve body temperatures needed for biological processes, such as digestion and growth. Temperatures experienced during embryogenesis may also influence post-hatching growth rate, potentially through influencing post-

Climate change poses a particular threat to species with fragmented distributions and little or no capacity to migrate. Assisted colonization, moving species into regions where they have not previously occurred, aims to establish populations where th

Estimates of population size are necessary for effective management of threatened and endangered species, but accurate estimation is often difficult when species are cryptic. We evaluated effectiveness of mark-recapture techniques using the Lincoln-P

Nest-site microhabitat influences hatching success, hatchling phenotype and offspring sex in reptiles with temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD). How females assess environmental features at potential nest sites, and then use such features in

Global climate change is of particular concern for small and isolated populations of reptiles with temperature-dependent sex determination because low genetic variation can limit adaptive response in pivotal temperatures, leading to skewed sex ratios
