In this series of studies, oxygen consumption was measured continuously in young tegu lizards, Tupinambis merianae, exposed to 4 days at 25ºC followed by 7 to 10 days at 17ºC, all in constant dark, at five different times of the year.
Under these constant conditions, circadian rhythms of oxygen consumption (higher in the daytime) persisted for anywhere from one day to the entire two weeks in different individuals in all seasons except the winter, at which time the animals had been in constant dark already for over a month.
Although this degree of reduction appeared to take longer to invoke when starting from higher metabolic rates, as during the active season, tegu lizards reduced their metabolism to the low rates seen in winter dormancy at all times of the year when given sufficient time in the cold and dark.

 Zoo - Zoom's Captive Care of the Tegu Lizard
The most highly prized is the Red Tegu, Tupinambis rufescens, which is found in the northern part of Argentina.
The Black and White Tegu, Tupinambis teguixin, is native to Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay (some taxonomists argue in favor of renaming this animal as T. merianae).
The common Tegu found on dealer lists is the Black Tegu, Tupinambis nigropunctatus (some taxonomists advocate dropping this name and replacing it with T. teguixin, which, they argue, has been incorrectly applied to the Argentine Black and White Tegu).

In color, the new species also differs from other Tupinambis species of T. merianae group and T. teguixin by the absence of transverse banded pattern on back.
It differs from T. quadrilineatus by the absence of whitish-yellow longitudinal narrow stripes on flanks, and from T. longilineus by the absence of a wide fl band on flanks (from the abstract of MANZANI & ABE 2002).
