A contribution to our knowledge of the varieties of the wall-lizard (Lacerta muralis) in Western Europe and North Africa London,Zoological Society,1905 biodiversitylibrary.org/page/12847245 Follow the Herparazzi team as they explore De Hoge Fronten, a collection of battlements that were built in the 17th and 18th century for the defense and protection of Maastricht, The Netherlands. There, we found the last remaining and most northern natural population of wall lizards (Podarcis muralis) in The Netherlands.
A newly discovered skeleton of an ancient seabird from northern Chile provides evidence that giant birds were soaring the skies there 5-10 million years ago. The wing bones of the animal exceed those of all other birds in length; its wingspan would have been at least 5.2 m (17 ft.). This is the largest safely established wingspan for a bird. Other, larger estimates for fossil birds have been based on much less secure evidence.
