Reproduction
Males reached sexual maturity at a smaller SVL (snout-vent length) than females. The same pattern emerged with body mass and both males and females had similar weights. In males, testicular volume varied with the month; smaller in November, increases in December through January, a plateau from April to August and after a peak in September and October there was a patterned decline in November. Testicular increase correlated with mean monthly precipitation, but not temperature or photoperiod. Litter size was not correlated with female SVL (snout-vent. length). ==References==
