Animalia > Chordata > Squamata > Crotaphytidae > Gambelia > Gambelia wislizeniiGambelia wislizenii (Longnose Leopard Lizard; long-nosed leopard lizard)Synonyms: Crotaphytus fasciatus (heterotypic); Crotaphytus fasciolatus (heterotypic); Crotaphytus gambelii; Crotaphytus wislizenii; Crotaphytus wislizenii maculosus; Gambelia wislizenii maculosa; Leios hallowellii The long-nosed leopard lizard, Gambelia wislizenii, is a relatively large North American lizard ranging from 8.3 to 14.6 cm (3 1⁄4 to 5 3⁄4 in) 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. |
