Jacky dragon
The jacky dragon, ''Amphibolurus muricatus'', is a type of lizard native to southeastern Australia. It was one of the first Australian reptiles to be named, originally described by English zoologist George Shaw in Surgeon-General John White’s ''Journal of a Voyage to New South Wales'',〔
, also at (Project Gutenberg Australia )
〕 which was published in London in 1790. It is well known for its bright yellow mouth and well-developed vertebral crest, as well as the temperature-dependent sex determination of its offspring. Other common names include blood-sucker, stonewalker, and tree dragon.
==Taxonomy==
The jacky dragon,〔 one of the 70 species of dragons (Agamidae) found in Australia, is generally diurnal and tends to run in an upright posture when pursued. Common morphological characteristics include rough, nonglossy scales; broad, thick, and fleshy tongues; and well-developed limbs, especially hind limbs which are generally longer and have five-clawed digits. Most dragons are also characterized by a lack of tail autotomy and the presence of femoral and/or preanal pores. Agamidae dragons are also oviparous and tend to deposit their eggs in burrows.
