Friday, January 8th, 2010


BRACHYLOPHUS FASCIATUS – A “typical” but not “true” iguana. The Fiji Island iguana, handsome, rare, three feet, vegetarian.

CTENOSAURA HEMILOPHA – Common spiny-tail iguana. Central Mexico to U.S. border. Three feet. Grey black with a short spiny tail. Spends more time on the ground than the common green iguana and requires more animal food. Robust and dangerous. This species was formerly called Ctenosaura conspicuosa, the banded spiny-tail iguana.

CTENOSAURA ACANTHURA – Black iguana. Mexico and Central America. Can run on two feet. More terrestrial than arboreal. Young specimens are uniformly bright emerald green. This is a spiny-tailed iguana and may in fact by the very same species as Ctenosaura hemilopha.

CTENOSAURA MULTISPINIS – Black spiny-tail iguana. Mexico. Probably the very same as C. acanthura but described by another scholar.

ENYALIOSAURUS -Two species from Mexico. Uncommon in the per trade.
