Other Lizard Genera

Other Lizard Genera is a Browse By group of the Nature Atlas that gathers genera of lizards that do not belong to a lizard group of their own in the Reptile Genera subcategory, such as Callisaurus, the genus of the zebra-tailed lizard, a lizard of the family Phrynosomatidae native to the southwestern United States and adjacent northwestern Mexico. An entry belongs here when its own cited article describes a genus of lizards, living or fossil, whose family is not covered by the monitor lizard, gecko or iguana genera groups. It excludes the snakes, turtles, tortoises and crocodilians, which have groups of their own, and it excludes the lizard genera that already sit in a named lizard group. The group lets a reader find the lizard lineages that are too few in this atlas to need a group of their own.
