| Differences in pigmentation and scalation were the bases for these opinions. |
| The nape would then be referred to as scaled, and the extent of the scalation noted. |
| Lacertid scalation and body forms are similar to those of the teiids, although lacertids are usually smaller. |
| Characteristics separating the various parrotfish genera are primarily based on structure of the teeth and patterns of scalation. |
