The Common Collared Lizard (Crotaphytus collaris) is a North American species of lizard in the family Crotaphytidae. It is distinguished by its oversized head, colorful body and bands of black around the neck and shoulders. The black bands give it the name “collared”. It is also known as Eastern Collared Lizard, Oklahoma Collared Lizard, Yellow-Headed Lizard and Collared Lizard. The collared lizard can grow to 8-15 inches in length including the tail. They have a large head and powerful jaws. The adult males with their blue green bodies are generally more colorful than the females. The collared lizard is mostly found in the arid, open landscapes of Mexico and south-central United States. They are carnivores, feeding on insects and small vertebrates. Occasionally they may eat plant material. This collared lizard was photographed while basking on warm rocks in Homolovi State Park near Winslow, Arizona, USA.

$The common lizard, scientifically known as Zootoca vivipara or Lacerta vivipara, is a small reptile found across various habitats in Europe and parts of Asia. This agile creature, often encountered in gardens, woodlands, and grasslands, showcases remarkable adaptations that have enabled its survival for millions of years.\n\nMeasuring around 10 to 15 centimeters in length, the common lizard exhibits distinct color variations, ranging from shades of brown and grey to vibrant greens. Its ability to change color, primarily for thermoregulation and camouflage purposes, adds to its mystique. Unlike many reptiles, the common lizard gives birth to live young instead of laying eggs, a unique trait known as viviparity.\n\nIn terms of behavior, these lizards are diurnal hunters, actively foraging for small insects and spiders. Their diet also includes larvae and other invertebrates, which they capture with lightning-fast strikes from their agile tongues. During colder months, common lizards hibernate to conserve energy, often seeking shelter in burrows or under rocks.$

The Blue tree monitor (Varanus macraei) is endemic to the island of Batanta in Indonesia.

$Description:\nThe lizard reaches up to 15 cm (5.9 in) from the tip of the muzzle to the cloaca. The tail can be up to twice the length of the body, total length is up to 40 cm (16 in). This lizard sometimes sheds its tail (autotomy) to evade the grasp of a predator, regrowing it later.\nThe male has a larger head and a uniform green coloring punctuated with small spots that are more pronounced upon its back. The throat is bluish in the adult male and to a lesser extent in the female. The female is more slender than the male and has a more uniform coloration, often displaying between two and four light bands bordered by black spots.\nDistribution and habitat:\nThe European green lizard is native to southeastern Europe. Its range extends from southern Germany, Austria, eastern Italy, Croatia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro and Greece to southern Ukraine, Romania, Bulgaria and western Turkey. It is known from elevations up to 2,200 above sea level and its typical habitat is dense bushy vegetation in open woodland, hedgerows, field margins, embankments and bramble thickets. In the northern part of its range it may be found on bushy heathland and in the southern part it prefers damp locations (source Wikipedia). \n\nThis Picture is made during a Vacation in Bulgaria in May 2018.$
