- Abstract
The reproductive cycle of a neotropical sphaerodactylid lizard, Gonatodes albogularis, was studied at Ancon, Panama Canal Zone, from September 1968, until October 1969. Counts of eggs oviposited at seven selected sites were made biweekly over this period; adults were collected monthly to provide information about reproductive condition. The maximum number of ovipositioned eggs was made just before the height of the rainy season and the minimal one during mid-dry season. The apparent reproductive condition of the adults did not reflect the decline in number of oviposited eggs during the end of the wet season.
