Abstract
⺠Digit ratio is of interest as a putative marker for early steroid hormone exposure. ⺠Lizard digit ratio was negatively related to antipredator escape response times. ⺠There was no relationship between digit ratio and endurance. ⺠Bibbed males had lower endurance and shorter antipredator escape response times. ⺠Head coloration predicted endurance, but was unrelated to antipredator behaviour.
