Resumo: | Iguana iguana is popularly known as Green Iguana, belonging to the Iguanidae family with Neotropical distribution in the Amazon, Pantanal, Cerrado and Caatinga. Iguana iguana has diurnal and arboreal habits, can be found in the soil, close to water bodies, are ectothermic, dependent on environmental conditions to control body temperature and regulate its metabolism. Most of the activities and daily interactions are related to the thermal environment, being mostly described for natural environments. Thus, our objective is to describe the basic aspects of the behavior of Iguana iguana in urban areas of the municipality of Altamira, PA and to relate these behaviors to the type of substrate. After 600 minutes of observation, the Green Iguanas showed few motility and preference for trees. Possibly due to intrinsic behavior. However, iguanas showed some incursions in open environments, possibly due to the low abundance of predators, in comparison to the natural environment, of the urban environment.Keywords: Green Iguana; substrate selection; urban areas; thermoregulation; lizards. |

Iguana iguana tem hábitos diurnos e arborícolas, podem ser encontradas no solo, próximas a corpos d'água, são ectotérmicos, dependentes das condições ambientais para controlar a temperatura corporal e regular seu metabolismo. A maior parte das atividades e interações diárias está relacionada ao ambiente térmico, sendo descritos, em sua maioria, para ambientes naturais. Assim, o nosso objetivo é descrever os aspectos básicos do comportamento de Iguana iguana em áreas urbanas do município de Altamira, PA e relacionar esses comportamentos ao tipo de substrato. Com 600 minutos de observação as Iguanas-verdes apresentaram poucas ações de motilidade e preferência por árvores. Possivelmente devido ao comportamento intrínseco. No entanto, as iguanas apresentaram algumas incursões em ambientes aberto, possivelmente em decorrência da baixa abundância de predadores, em comparação ao ambiente natural, do ambiente urbano.Palavras-chave: Iguana-verde, seleção de substrato, áreas urbanas, termorregulação, lagartos.Universidade Federal do AmapáBrito-Santos, Jhonnes LucianoOliveira Junior, Angelino Pereira deVeloso, Geysa Kelly OliveiraVieira, Thiago Bernardi2023-06-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigo Avaliado pelos Paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unifap.br/index.php/biota/article/view/601510.18561/2179-5746/biotaamazonia.v13n1p6-9Biota Amazônia (Biote Amazonie, Biota Amazonia, Amazonian Biota); v. 13, n. 1 (2023); 6-92179-5746reponame:Biota Amazôniainstname:Universidade Federal do Amapá (UNIFAP)instacron:UNIFAPporhttps://periodicos.unifap.br/index.php/biota/article/view/6015/v13n1p6-9.pdfhttps://periodicos.unifap.br/index.php/biota/article/downloadSuppFile/6015/1012Amazônia;Pará; Altamira; BrasilDireitos autorais 2023 Biota Amazônia (Biote Amazonie, Biota Amazonia, Amazonian Biota)http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-12-31T14:34:54Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/6015Revistahttp://periodicos.unifap.br/index.php/biotaONGhttps://periodicos.unifap.br/index.php/biota/oai||juliosa@unifap.br2179-57462179-5746opendoar:2023-12-31T14:34:54Biota Amazônia - Universidade Federal do Amapá (UNIFAP)false |
