Habitat associations of six‐lined racerunners in longleaf pine managed with a short fire rotation for northern bobwhites by Isaiah W. Samek, Steven J. Price, Theron M. Terhune II, Darin J. McNeil

“…To better understand how squamate reptiles may benefit from longleaf pine savanna managed for northern bobwhites, we surveyed for six‐lined racerunners (Aspidoscelis sexlineata) across a large, contiguous tract of longleaf pine with varied land cover characteristics, managed to maximize the conservation of northern bobwhites. Racerunner detection probability on transect surveys was low (p̂ = 0.23); however, occupancy probability was relatively high (ᴪ̂ = 0.60) across the property and driven by percent open ground (positive; 25‐m scale), percent grass cover (negative; 25‐m scale), and percent wetland (negative; 100‐m scale). …”
