More Species of Lizards

Thursday, December 15th, 2011


A clear luster, but some genera, notably Trachydosaurus and Tribolonotus, have rough or keeled scales. Many forms lack limbs or possess but one pair; there may be five or fewer fingers.

Probably the most problematic genus has been Lygosoma, practically world-wide in distribution and having all stages of limb development. The genus Eumeces is common in the United States and includes the golden Great Plains skink, E. obsoleta, a foot-long lizard of the central states. Trachydosaurus rugosus looks like an animated pair of pinecones, having large scales and a tail resembling the head. The family giant is Corucia zebrata, a two-foot long tree dweller of the Solomon Islands.

The skinks are active, often nervous lizards. They hide under large boulders or in other inaccessible spots but sometimes take to hilly woodsides. They are mainly insectivorous but many also eat plants.

Many species of lizards, regardless of climatic origin, will drink water from a bowl or other container. The provision of water can be as simple as the inclusion of a water dish or as complicated as the elaborate arrangement of a waterfall and its corresponding lagoon.

Drinking water, as well as water that is provided for the lizard to soak in, should always be clean. The bowl should be emptied and refilled daily. If chlorine in tap water is a concern, bottled mineral water is commercially available. Many lizards are good swimmers, but others are not so adept. To eliminate the threat of a fatal fall into a water dish, it is a good idea to place non-sedimentary rocks, such as red shale, in an arrangement that provides the lizard with ease of access both into and out of the water. Either a drip system or the use of an air stone in conjunction with the water bowl will increase humidity as well as enable the lizard to find the water more easily. (Drip systems and air stone agitation of the water should be avoided in desert terrariums.)

Plastic plants can be used to decorate the terrarium environment, although they inspire nearly the same apathy in the viewer of such a habitat as do their sea-going counterparts that can be found in many uninteresting aquariums. Although plastic plants give the terrarium an unnatural “look,” they do have their advantages. Many “species” of fake plants are tough enough to withstand the abuse that is sometimes dealt out by rambunctious lizards. Additionally, the probability that pesticides have been applied prior to purchase is extremely remote. Conversely, most real plants will probably harbor these toxic substances. It is advisable to thoroughly clean any plant that has been purchased from a source where pesticide contamination is a possibility.

Tropical Zones

Sunday, August 29th, 2010


Approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm) of the pit should be submerged. It is time to pot the pit when many roots are present. The avocado and pineapple plants require full sunlight and are suitable plants to include in a tropical terrarium.

The aforementioned plants represent only a sample of the live plants that might be successfully maintained in a tropical habitat. The possibility of failure or success in an attempt to establish a well-balanced environment for lizards and live plants is probably determined by many factors. The individual who has the aid of a “green thumb” will most likely be a step ahead of the game.

Certain species of plants are poisonous and should not be included in a terrarium that houses lizards. Senecio macroglossus, an ivy-like tropical plant, is a poisonous species. Likewise, Philodendron is a toxic plant. Certain plants require specific care. The tropical zebra arrowroot, Calathea, although suitable for the terrarium throughout most of the year, tends to prefer a slightly cooler temperature during the winter. Recommendations concerning plant fertilizers and pesticides, as well as a suitable day/night schedule and the provision of a shaded area within the tropical terrarium, parallel the suggestions given for temperate/subtropical habitats.

From a romantic point of view, a rain-forest habitat simulated within the confines of a terrarium seems to be the most beneficial environment that can be provided for tropical lizards. This type of environment also offers the most appealing approach to the keeper. In practice, however, the scenic beauty of even the best-designed terrarium maintained by the average amateur herpetologist might be demolished by the ever-increasing size and activity of the rapidly growing larger species of lizards. A walk-in greenhouse or similar structure is then necessary if the lizard is to be provided with a jungle-like environment.
