About the Cover
Cover image: The Panther Chameleon, Furcifer pardalis, is an icon of squamate diversity but is threatened where it lives in the vanishing forests of central and eastern Madagascar. Despite their importance to a broad cross section of ecological and evolutionary research, non-avian reptiles present a largely unexplored frontier of genomic diversity that will be initially charted by the completion of the Anolis lizard genome assembly.
