Figure 1
The timing and duration of temporary pseudohermaphroditism (TPH) in squamates. White bars indicate indeterminate sex, dark grey shows the TPH phase, and light grey indicates dimorphic sexes. The asterisk symbol for Anolis carolinensis indicates that there is a short delay (half a stage) between ovarian differentiation and genital dimorphism but is functionally lacking TPH. The dagger symbol on the dotted section of developmental stage axis indicates the approximate post-hatch timing of hemipenis regression in Barisia imbricata31. The timing of events are approximations standardised to the staging system described for Pogona vitticeps27. The reproductive mode (O/V) and sex determination mode (SDM) is reported for each species (O = oviparity, V = viviparity, G + T = genetic with thermal influence, GSD = genetic sex determination). The dashed vertical line at stage 18 denotes approximate time of hatching/birth. Phylogeny adapted from70, branch length is for illustrative purposes only.
