The table shows linear and quadratic estimates, associated z‐ values with p‐values (asterisks), the Akaike information criterion values (AIC) and explained deviance (D2) of variables. The AIC values and the explained deviance were estimated for each predictor separately and in combination for full model. The most important variables for all lizards, diurnal lizards and nocturnal lizards were indicated in bold. Significance codes: 0 ‘***’ 0.001 ‘**’ 0.01 ‘*’ 0.05.
