Sexual size dimorphism (SSD) in body mass varies greatly across animal species, even among closely related taxa (e.g. Nuñez-Rosas et al. 2017, Agha et al. 2018, Portik et al. 2020). For instance, female-biased SSD is common in invertebrates and ectothermic vertebrates, such as the blanket octopus, Tremoctopus violaceus, in which females can reach ≤40 000 times the weight of the male (Norman et al. 2002).

The relationship between infectious diseases and climate change is currently one of the most relevant eco-epidemiological topics (Epstein 2001, Hall et al. 2006, Ayala et al. 2019). Climate change is expected to have an impact on several vector-borne diseases (VBDs) (Parham et al. 2015, Fouque and Reeder 2019) such as Malaria (Alonso et al. 2011, Delgado-Petrocelli et al. 2012), dengue fever (Barcellos and Lowe 2014, Dhimal et al. 2015), chikungunya virus (Fischer et al. 2013, Campbell et al.

Identifying areas of endemism, the fundamental units in biogeography (Hausdorf 2002), is the first step towards understanding the historical or current factors that explain modern patterns of speciation and range restriction (Slatyer et al. 2007). Different biological groups living in the same biogeographical region usually exhibit distinct patterns of endemism owing to differences in their traits, habitat preferences, and evolutionary histories (Kessler et al. 2001, González-Orozco et al. 2015).

Research on Pleistocene Amazonian refugia has predominantly targeted forest-dwelling taxa, although evidence suggests that endemic species have also evolved in peripheral Amazonian enclaves of open–dry habitats. In Rondônia, Brazil, Tropidurus lizards are restricted to savannah relicts that were once connected to the core Cerrado biome.

A hair sample preserved in 70% ethanol belonging to one specimen of T. pinchaque was donated to one of us (JO) by the Instituto de Ciências Biológicas da Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Total genomic DNA was extracted from the hair sample with the Qiagen Blood and Tissue Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) using the manufacturer's instructions. Extracted DNA was then shipped to the Savannah River Ecology Laboratory, University of Georgia, Aiken, for next-generation sequencing.
