Abstract
In 111 individuals of sand lizard (Lacerta agilis L.) of both sexes, b iometric analysis of 27 somatic and plastic traits was carried out. In traspecific variability in both sexes, sexual dimorphism of the traits , and the measure of dependence of five selected traits on the body le ngth using linear regression were described. The results were compared with available published data on the morphology of this species.
