Long-nosed leopard lizard
The long-nosed leopard lizard, ''Gambelia wislizenii'', is a relatively large North American lizard ranging from snout-vent length (SVL). It has a large head, long nose, and a long round tail that can be longer than its body. It is closely related to the blunt-nosed leopard lizard which closely resembles the long-nosed leopard lizard in body proportions, but has a conspicuously blunt snout. They were once considered part of the genus ''Crotaphytus''. They are endangered because of habitat destruction.
==Etymology==
The specific name or epithet, ''wislizenii'', is in honor of the German-American surgeon and naturalist Frederick Adolph Wislizenus, who caught the first specimen near Santa Fe, New Mexico.〔Beltz, Ellin. 2006.
