Thanks (again), brian. The lizard was quite far away, but here's another photo of it.

... and then agian... looking at this pic, you may be right with Karroo Sandveld lizard

Thanks, brian, appreciate your help!

My daughter recorded this one at Mopani. Is it a Rough scaled or giant plated lizard and how do you tell the difference.

Thanks.

Also can you identify these 2, sorry for bad quality.

Hi wildheart, it's a Rough-scaled plated lizard Gerrhosaurus major

Rough scaled, uniform back and flanks and cream scales under chin.

Thanks a million! And the other 2? Both were seen at Lower Sabie.

Ok so I am thinking that the first is the Southern tree agama - Acanthocercus Atricollis
The second one maybe a Ground Agama - Agama aculeata aculeata?

Both are Southern Tree Agamas (Acanthocercus atricollis), but the bottom one is a juvenile.

Hello,

can someone help me and identify this gecko?

Hi Ludwig.
It is a Tropical Gecko Hemidactylus mabouia mabouia

Ludwig

Thank you Roan,
thank you for your help.


Hello anne-marie,
nice to hear from you!

This isn't at all a good photo, but can anyone help (from this partial view) with an ID of this lizard? Seen at the restaurant at Mapungubwe's interpretive centre on 14 April 2012.
