Title: | Intentional Human-Caused Mortality of Plestiodon copei (Scincidae) | Keywords: | Agricultural area;deliberated killing;illegal hunting;non-venomous lizard;info:eu-repo/classification/cti/2 | Publisher: | REVISTA LATINOAMERICANA DE HERPETOLOGÍA | Project: | 2 | Description: | Artículo científico In México, several species of lizards are popularly considered as venomous species because they have bright colors, therefore they are susceptible to being intentionally killed. In this note we report an intentional mortality of a gravid female of Plestiodon copei for being considered as a venomous lizard, mainly for its tail coloration. This type of activity has a negative impact on the populations of P. copei, therefore it is necessary to highlight to the local residents that it is not a venomous species. |
