Fitness effects of the timing of hatching may drive the evolution of temperature-dependent sex determination in short-lived lizards
In several species of short-lived Australian agamid lizards, an individual's sex is determined by the nest temperatures encountered during incubation. The adaptive significance of such systems remains unclear. Here, we explore the hypothesis that (1) the optimal timing of hatching differs betwe...
