    Lizards and Eleonora’s Falcon (Falco eleonorae Gené, 1839), a Mediterranean micro-insular commensalism

    ABSTRACT
    Lizards and Eleonora’s falcon occur on many Mediterranean islets. Data given in literature and new observations concerning their asymmetrical interactions, which have been reviewed and illustrated, allow to regard those as a commensal relationship typical on these micro-insular ecosystems. Some considerations on the ecological, ecomorphological and phenological traits involved on this commensalism are also briefly discussed.
