This Bureau of Land Management (BLM) grant is for understanding the genetic diversity, structure, connectivity, and stability of Desert Night Lizard (Xantusia vigilis) populations in the Panoche Hills, California. This research will inform historical processes shaping central California reptile diversity and the evolutionary history of the Xantusia genus. It will augment BLM management strategies for the Panoche Hills, with results immediately applicable to assessing population subdivision among endangered blunt-nosed leopard lizard (Gambelia sila) subpopulations in the region.

| Description: | This project seeks to understand the genetic diversity, structure, connectivity, and stability of the populations of Xantusia vigilis (Desert Night Lizard) in the Panoche Hills, California. This information is essential for informing how historical processes helped shape reptile diversity in central California arid zones, for understanding the evolutionary history of the genus Xantusia in North America, and for augmenting management strategies for use by the Bureau of Land Management in the Panoche Hills. The results are expected to have immediate application in allowing us to assess the significance of observed population subdivision among subpopulations of the endangered blunt-nosed leopard lizard, Gambelia sila, in the Panoche region. |
