Neuron Expedition For the Asexual Basilisk

  • Expedition leader: biologist and zoologist Lukáš Kratochvíl
  • Honduras
  • 2022

Is the basilisk Laemanctus julioi asexual in the wild? What is the origin of the asexual lineage kept in Europe? Is the asexual lineage an interspecific hybrid, as other asexual reptiles are? And how many genetic clones make up any wild asexual populations? These are the questions the Neuron Expedition, which set out for Honduras in November 2022, will try to answer.
