COVER PHOTO: A mother toad‐headed agama (Phrynocephalus vlangalii ) with her children. P. vlangalii is a species of viviparous agamid lizard endemic to the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau in China. This lizard lives in burrows at high elevations of 2,000 to 4,600 meters. They need to adapt to a series of harsh environments, including low oxygen levels, low temperatures, and strong ultraviolet radiation. Jiang et al. (this issue; Article: e4414; doi: 10.1002/ecy.4414 ) collected active and resting body temperatures of P. vlangalii and conducted physiological experiments and mechanistic modeling to assess how resting status determines physiological constraints within a species' distribution range and how climate change drives changes in these physiological constraints.
