	Digimorph - Dipsosaurus dorsalis (desert iguana)
		Dipsosaurus dorsalis, the desert iguana, occurs in southeastern California, southern Nevada, southwestern Utah, western and south-central Arizona, eastern and southern Baja California, northwestern Mexico, and some of the Gulf of California islands.
		Dipsosaurus dorsalis both emerges and remains active later in the day than most lizards, and body temperatures of 45° C have been recorded -- well above lethal levels for most lizard species.
		Three-dimensional volumetric renderings of the skull with the scleral ossicles, hyoid and jaw removed, and of the isolated left mandible.

	Dwarf Iguana (Dipsosaurus) - MavicaNET (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Dipsosaurus leeft in het woestijngebied om de golf van Californië: in de USA in zuid-Nevada, Zuidwest-Californie en Zuidoost-Arizona, in Mexico in het westelijke deel van Baja California del Norte, in geheel Baja California del Sur en in West-Sonora.
		This file contains a systematic overview of Dipsosaurus, featuring links to books, other pages on the web about Dipsosaurus, pictures etc. Common names in different languages may be also available as well as a short dutch description to the taxon.
		I suspect this rather hefty desert iguana was a gravid female. She was the only desert iguana we saw in Cholla Garden, but further south towards Cottonwood Springs we saw many near the road.

	Cardiopulmonary Function in Iguanids
		The influence of corticosterone and glucagon on metabolic recovery from exhaustive exercise in the desert iguana Dipsosaurus dorsalis.
		We measured the effects of 5 min of exhaustive exercise on plasma levels of glucagon and corticosterone in the desert iguana Dipsosaurus dorsalis.
		To understand the influence of selected hormones on this process, we measured changes in plasma catecholamines and corticosterone resulting from exercise in the lizard Dipsosaurus dorsalis and then investigated the physiological effects of those hormones on skeletal muscle lactate and glucose metabolism in vitro.

	Estimation of the metabolic rate of the desert iguana (Dipsosaurus dorsalis) by a radionuclide technique
		We describe a method for measuring metabolic rates (MRs) of ectotherms using successive measurements of radionuclide body burdens, which may provide an alternative means of measuring field metabolic rate (FMR).
		We compared the rates of elimination of seven radionuclides with estimates of MRs (CO production) from DLW measurements in the desert iguana, Dipsosaurus dorsalis.

	Bipedal and quadrupedal locomotion in lizards
		1 are the desert iguana (Dipsosaurus dorsalis), the zebra-tailed lizard (Callisaurus draconoides), the Mojave fringe-toed lizard (Uma scoparia), the desert horned lizard (Phrynosoma platyrhinos), and the western whiptail (Cnemidophorus tigris tigris).
		These five species span a wide range of different terrestrial lizard phenotypes, and their phylogenetic relationships are well resolved.
		Another striking feature of high-speed locomotion was the highly extended hindlimb and the very large knee angles, which reached as high as 130 degrees.

		This is possibly due to predation, I don't know.
		My Dipsosaurus have reached up to 15 inches [38 cm] long and I've noticed that the Desert Iguanas I've caught at the northern end of their range have dark red to gray stripes running lengthwise down their body, while specimens in the southern areas have more of a red-orange striping.
		In captivity, they readily consume leafy greens and seem to prefer endive and bok choy.
