摘要: Diet and helminth fauna were analysed in Gallotia stehlini (Schenkel, 1901), a giant lacertid lizard endemic to Gran Canaria (Canary Islands, Spain) order explore eventual relationships between both traits. This species is mainly herbivorous, eating large proportion of plant matter (occurrence 97.1%) including not only seeds but also leaves other vegetative parts. Helminth included many typical herbivorous reptiles, intestinal diversity was high. A comparison with lacertids suggests that traits, diet fauna, result from an adaptation insular conditions. Canarian Gallotia, separate lineage evolving for long time insularity, constitutes the most modified group this sense.
