  Holbrookia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Holbrookia is a genus of earless lizard known commonly as the lesser earless lizards which contains four recognized species that are found throughout the southern and central United States, and northern Mexico.
Keeled Earless Lizard, Holbrookia propinqua (Baird and Girard, 1852)
Earless lizards are found from the southwestern and central United States, in the states of Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma, and as far north as Nebraska, South Dakota, and Wyoming.

Body temperatures and thermoregulatory behavior of field-active Holbrookia maculata were evaluated for two sites at approximately equal elevation (approximately1200 m) in southern New Mexico: 1) a population at White Sands National Monument, and 2) a population at the Jornada Long-term Ecological Research site.
The lesser earless lizard, Holbrookia maculata, is a medium-sized, semi-arenicolous phrynosomatid found across much of the Great Plains of the United States, including southern New Mexico (Degenhardt et al.
Generally, lizards basked in the open and perched on vegetation in the early morning (Figure 3B).  The edge and arboreal microhabitats were used increasingly during late and early afternoon hours.  Individuals used Ephedra exclusively for arboreal perches.

 SDNHM - Female Gravid Coloration in Reptiles
In some species, such as Crotaphytus collaris, breeding coloration is a signal that stimulates courtship (Baird, 2004).
Yet in other iguanian lizard species, such as Holbrookia maculata, the intensity of the coloration allows males to monitor when females become receptive (Hager, 2001).
Generally, the role of this bright coloration is poorly understood in most lizard species.

Ben Dail (1986) noted in his study of two other closely related species Holbrookia texana and Holbrookia propinqua, that this tail curling behavior occurred most often when a potential predator was from 3 1/2 to 4 meters away from the lizard.
The lizard would point its tail toward the predator, curl it up, and shake it.
However, when the predator came closer or attempted to come toward it very quickly, Holbrookia texana, in particular, would not curl its tail: it just ran!
