infection of hexametra angusticaecoides chabaud & brygoo, 1960 (nematoda: ascarididae) in a population of captive crested geckoes, correlophus ciliatus guichenot (reptilia: diplodactylidae).	here we report on the infection of captive crested geckos correlophus ciliatus guichenot (reptilia: diplodactylidae), with adults of the ascaridoid nematode, hexametra angusticaecoides chabaud & brygoo, 1960 (ascarididae). a population of captive crested geckoes became ill and died within a short period of time. nematodes were recovered from the crested geckoes examined from within the coelomic cavity, penetrating various organs and migrating through subcutaneous tissues, as well as emerging thr ...	2020	32046802
thermoregulation and thermal performance of crested geckos (correlophus ciliatus) suggest an extended optimality hypothesis for the evolution of thermoregulatory set-points.	crested geckos (correlophus ciliatus, formerly rhacodactylus ciliatus) were rediscovered in new caledonia 25 years ago and despite being common in the pet trade, there is no published information on their physiology. we measured thermoregulation (preferred body temperature, thermal set-point range, and voluntary limits) and performance (thermal performance curves [tpc] for 25 cm sprint speed and 1 m running speed) of adult and juvenile crested geckos in the laboratory to describe their thermal t ...	2020	32483940
