Podarcis wagleriana : ウィキペディア英語版 | Sicilian wall lizard
The Sicilian wall lizard (''Podarcis waglerianus'') is a species of lizard in the family Lacertidae. Endemic to Italy, it occurs in Sicily and the Aegadian Islands. Its natural habitats are temperate forests, temperate shrubland, Mediterranean-type shrubby vegetation, temperate grassland, arable land, pastureland, and rural gardens. The IUCN does not consider it to be a threatened species. Three subspecies are recognized: ''P. w. antoninoi'', ''P. w. marettimensis'' and ''P. w. wagleriana''. ==Description== The Sicilian wall lizard grows to a length of about with males being slightly larger than females. The dorsal surface is usually green but some females may be olive or brownish. There is usually a well-defined white or yellow dorso-lateral stripe and often a brown stripe, or series of dots, running along the spine. There are other dark spots in rows on the back and flanks of males but females are often a more uniform colour. The underparts are white with a spotted throat, but may be suffused with orange, pink or red in breeding males.〔 The Sicilian wall lizard differs from island populations of the Italian wall lizard in having a deeper head, more slender form, more speckled (rather than reticulated) markings and the brighter colour of the underparts.
