The sharp-snouted rock lizard (''Lacerta oxycephala'') is a species of lizard in the family Lacertidae. It is found in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro, and possibly Albania, where its natural habitats are Mediterranean-type shrubby vegetation, rocky areas, rocky shores, rural gardens, and urban areas. ==Description== The sharp-snouted rock lizard is a slender, flattened lizard with a pointed snout and somewhat bulgy eyes. The adult snout-to-vent length is up to with a tail one and a half times or twice as long as the body. The hind toes are kinked and are shorter than those of other species in the genus. Another distinctive feature is the wide central pair of scales under the tail. There are two main colour forms; in lowland regions the body is greyish-buff with a brown reticulated pattern and the tail is boldly striped transversely in black and turquoise-green; in upland areas and on some offshore islands the colour is much darker and may be completely black. The colour of lizards from intermediate altitudes varies. In all cases, the underside is blue, with a more intense colour in males. Some individuals change colour during the year, being darker during colder weather. Juveniles have the colouring of a lowland adult but with more vivid tail stripes.
