Datos de investigación
Functional traits for Chilean reptiles: Maximum snout vent length (SVL) in mm, diel activity, diet and its items, microhabitat and reproductive mode were obtained from literature, whereas vegetation zones and altitudinal range inhabited were computing from GARD 1.7 (Roll et al. 2017) and the EcoVeg approach (Lueber and Pliscoff 2022)

Resumen
To assess functional diversity of Chilean reptiles, I compiled natural history information commonly used for studying lizard assemblages. In particular, the functional traits analyzed included snout-vent length (SVL), activity pattern (diurnal or nocturnal), diet type (carnivorous, herbivorous, omnivorous), diet item (vegetation, terrestrial invertebrates, marine invertebrates, vertebrates), reproductive mode (oviparous or viviparous), microhabitat (terrestrial, rock-dwelling, semiarboreal, arboreal), altitudinal range and number of vegetation units occupied by the species. Natural history information traits were compiled from bibliography, while altitudinal range and vegetation units were computed from the Global Assesment of Reptiles Distributions (GARD 1.7, available online) and using the EcoVeg approach from the paper of Lueber & Pliscoff in 2022, called "The vegetation of Chile and the EcoVeg approach in the context of the International Vegetation Classification project", respectively. This data will be used to analyze alfa and beta functional diversity of reptiles assemblages.
Información Técnica
Información técnica recopilada desde la bibliografía sobre rasgos funcionales, como por ejemplo dieta, uso de microhabitat, tamaño corporal, rango altitudinal, de reptiles que habitan dentro de Chile. Incluye las referencias desde donde se recopilaron los datos.
