Mangrove monitor

The mangrove monitor, mangrove goanna, or Western Pacific monitor lizard (''Varanus indicus'') is a member of the monitor lizard family with a large distribution from northern Australia and New Guinea to the Moluccas, Solomon Islands, Marshall Islands, Caroline Islands, and Mariana Islands. It grows to lengths of .
== Taxonomy ==
The mangrove monitor was first described by the French herpetologist François Marie Daudin in 1802.〔 Daudin's original holotype of a subadult specimen was collected on Ambon, Indonesia, and has since disappeared from the museum in Paris. Daudin's original name for the species was ''Tupinambis indicus'', an appellation it would carry for 100 years until being renamed as a ''Varanus''.
The generic name ''Varanus'' is derived from the Arabic word ''waral'' (ورل), which translates to English as "monitor."〔 Its specific name, ''indicus'', is Latin for the country of India, but in this instance it relates to Indonesia or the East Indies, where the animal was first described.〔
Due to its large geographic range, ''V. indicus'' is considered a cryptic species complex of at least four species: ''Varanus indicus'', ''Varanus doreanus'',''Varanus spinulosus'', and ''Varanus jobiensis''. More research is being done on possible future species within this complex, not surprisingly, since it has had over 25 different scientific names since it was first described.〔
