Visual Contrast Data

Chromatic and achromatic contrasts of lizard colour patches against predominant backgrounds, and the internal contrast between constituent throat colour patches. Contrasts are from the perspective of conspecific lizards, likely predators (birds), or both

Microsatellite_Data_File

Complete microsatellite genotypic data set

Colour_Pattern_Data_File

Data from colour pattern analysis of Ctenophorus decresii male throat coloration from Mt Lofty Ranges (LR), Kangaroo Island (KI), and New South Wales (NSW) populations. ProportionGrey, ProportionRed, ProportionYellow, and ProportionBlue are colour variables, while TotalPower is a measure of overall patterning

Sequence_Data_Files

Zip file containing fasta files for six loci used in this study

MSVAR_Input_Files

Zip file containing input files for MSVAR analyses for two populations from the Southern Flinders Ranges (Aroona and Telowie Gorge), and one from each of the Olary Ranges (Bimbowrie), Mt Lofty Ranges (Morialta), and Kangaroo Island (Snake Lagoon) geographic regions

Migrate_Input_File

Input file for Migrate analyses. Data are microsatellite repeat numbers and populations are the adjacent Olary Ranges (OR) and Mt Lofty Ranges (LR) geographic regions

Spectral Reflectance and Irradiance Data

Spectral reflectance of the throat, dorsum, head, bright neck coloration and dark lateral stripe of male tawny dragon lizards, and predominant background colours. Each column is the reflectance of a given colour patch averaged across three measurements. Reflectance data were smoothed by averaging over each 5nm interval within the range 300–700nm (visual spectrum of birds and most diurnal lizards), and the mean irradiance across all sites was normalised to a maximum of one. Note that mean reflectance of backgrounds were used in subsequent analyses
