Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Im not exactly sure what you are asking:
You asked for the common name, the common name of that species is Water Monitor
as listed in description of subspeies it would be from a vast range of locations the one you asked about is Varanus salvator scutigerulus --Borneo
More articles are:

You will most likely have better luck asking about monitors in the monitor forum, thos of us like me, can only give you info based on what you ask.

Taxanomically they are considered Varanus Salvador nuchalis (Central Philippines), Varanus Salvador togianus (Sulawesi), Varanus Salvador scutigerulus (Borneo), Varanus Salvador marmoratus (North Philippines), Varanus Salvador cummingi (South Philippines) and a melanistic form (all black) referred to as "Varanus Salvador komaini".
Varanus Salvador scutigerulus (Borneo), Would be Borneo water monitor. The last part of their scientific name is based on the origin of were they are found. In this case Borneo.
