We measured thermoregulation (preferred body temperature, thermal set\u2010point range, and voluntary limits) and performance (thermal performance curves [TPC] for 25\u2009cm sprint speed and 1\u2009m running speed) of adult and juvenile crested geckos in the laboratory to describe their thermal tolerances, differences among life stages, correlations between behavior and performance, and correlations with natural temperatures. Despite lacking special lighting or heating requirements in captivity, crested geckos displayed typical thermal biology for a lizard with no difference among life stages. They thermoregulated to a narrow set\u2010point range (<jats:italic>T<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>SET<\/jats:sub>, 24\u201328\u00b0C), that broadly overlaps natural air temperatures in New Caledonia, during activity. Somewhat surprisingly, the optimal temperature for performance (<jats:italic>T<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>OPT<\/jats:sub>, 32\u00b0C) was substantially above preferred body temperatures and approximated the average maximum temperature voluntarily experienced (VT<jats:sub>MAX<\/jats:sub>, 33\u00b0C). Preferred body temperatures, by contrast, corresponded to the lower threshold temperature (<jats:italic>T<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>d<\/jats:sub>) where the TPC deviated from exponential, which we suggest is the temperature where performance is optimized after accounting for the costs of metabolic demand and overheating risk. Our results demonstrate that despite their lack of specific requirements when housed in human dwellings, crested geckos actively thermoregulate to temperatures that facilitate performance, and have thermal biology typical of other nocturnal or shade\u2010dwelling species. Additionally, crested geckos appear at little risk of direct climate change\u2010induced decline because increased temperatures should allow increased activity.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/jez.2388","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,6,2]],"date-time":"2020-06-02T04:06:14Z","timestamp":1591070774000},"page":"86-95","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Thermoregulation and thermal performance of crested geckos (<i>Correlophus ciliatus<\/i>) suggest an extended optimality hypothesis for the evolution of thermoregulatory set\u2010points"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"335","author":[{"given":"Andrea","family":"Aparicio Ramirez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology California State University Fresno  Fresno California"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Karina","family":"Perez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology California State University Fresno  Fresno California"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0767-8565","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rory S.","family":"Telemeco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology California State University Fresno  Fresno California"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/acprof:oso\/9780198570875.001.1"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/conphys\/cot018"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/physzool.43.1.30152481"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1365-2435.12795"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","volume-title":"The herpetofauna of New Caledonia","author":"Bauer A.
