JACKY DRAGON OR JACKY LIZARD
Amphibolurus muricatus
The Jacky Lizard or Jacky Dragon is a very common species found in Eastern and South Eastern Australia. It is often seen perching on fence posts and trees. It may be confused with many other species of Dragon lizards (Agamas) including the Mallee Heath Lashtail Dragon (Amphibolurus norrisi)
the
Nobbi Dragon Diporiphora (was Amphibolurus) nobbi the MOUNTAIN (HEATH) DRAGON Rankinia (was Tympanocryptis) diemensis and juvenile Common or Eastern Bearded Dragon Pogona barbata
The Jacky Lizard normally has a bright yellow mouth lining, however my long term (captive bred) Jacky Lizards have pink mouth linings.
