The lizards belong to the Ctenophorus family and were identified by Danielle Edwards, curator of terrestrial vertebrates at The Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory. They are the tjakalpa, kartiwarrui, ibiri and the tuniluki

@sDrewth Now I want to go to ASH Island and The Australian Museum. Bucket list addition. And I will add "Glorious intellectual promiscuity" to my list of ambitions!

Our goal is to empower pet owners with a unique ability called 'Pet Sense,' enabling them to respond to their pets' health needs more effectively, while protecting themselves from potential health risks.

Adelaide, Australia, herpers! I am looking to collect samples from pet/captive snakes and lizards during the next two weeks while I am in Adelaide. I will bring plenty of heat packs. Let me know if you would be willing to volunteer any reptiles in your care 😘 #herpetology
