Anotosaura vanzolinia, Vanzolini's anotosaura, is a species of lizard in the family Gymnophthalmidae.[2] It is endemic to Brazil.

Etymology

The specific name, vanzolinia, is in honor of Brazilian herpetologist and composer Paulo Vanzolini.[3]

Diet and habitat

This organism's diet consists of primarily of ants, termites, and other arthropods of the edaphic microfauna. Some arthropods include members of Arachnida, Crustacea, Hexapoda, and Diploda.[4]

A. vanzolinia's preferred habitat is sparse shrubby vegetation, dense shrubby vegetation, sparse arboreal vegetation, dense arboreal vegetation, sparse shrubby-arboreal vegetation and dense shrubby-arboreal vegetation.[4] They dwell within leaf litter around shrubs, leaf litter among bromeliads, leaf litter around rocky outcrops and isolated leaf litter.[4]
