I recently gave a talk about my research at the international society for Behavioral Ecology (ISBE) meeting in Perth, Australia. My talk described the results of two experiments that investigated color evolution in the Ibiza wall lizard, Podarcis pityusensis, a terrestrial lizard endemic to Spain`s Pityuses Archipelago that expresses striking color diversity within and between the sexes across its geographic range. I investigate this color diversity in the context of intralocus sexual conflict.
