''Pogona minor'' is a species of agamid lizard from a group commonly known as bearded dragons, and is found on the southwest coast and interior of Western Australia. This taxonomic name includes the widespread type known as western bearded dragon, ''Pogona minor minor'', and the subspecies, ''Pogona minor minima'', confined to the Wallabi Group of islands. ==Description== ''Pogona minor minor'' lizards are large, 38 cm in length (15 cm from snout to vent), ''P. m. minima'' is slightly smaller. All bearded dragons have a chameleon-like colour, either blending into their environments or presenting brighter displays during interaction with others. They are similar in appearance to ''Pogona nullarbor'' and ''Caimanops amphiboluroides'' (mulga dragon), but are distinguished by smaller heads, and the arrangement of spines on their undersides and necks. The western bearded dragon is widespread in Southwest Australia and central deserts; the range includes semiarid regions such as woodland or heathland, and arid desert or coastal dunes. This subspecies also occurs on Dirk Hartog Island. ''Pogona minor minima'' is found on West, North, and East Wallabi Islands, Houtman Abrolhos.〔 These dragons display a behaviour common to other ''Pogona'' species, they will wave one of their fore legs to trigger a response from a potential rival or mate. Another typical behaviour is head-bobbing amongst males, perhaps related to dominance within their social order. They are often seen basking on fence posts.〔
