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.

The earless monitor is probably my favorite reptile! They are the only lizards related to the varanids (monitors) and the helodermatids (beaded lizards). I'd love to own one but they are EXTREMELY rare and are under threat to become extinct

Wonderful list, Robert! I am familiar with quite a few, but love learning about the others I know nothing about. The female Minor's pictured, by the way, is gravid. Female Minor's are more colorful than the males, but only look that astonishing when gravid.

Thanks Laura!
I guess if they only look that awesome when they are gravid, you don't have to wonder if she is or not.
I'll be adding some more pictures shortly
