Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery Eastern Water Dragon (Physignathus lesueurii) Class: Reptilia Family: Agamidae World-wide, around 350 species are recognised currently in the family Agamidae. Of these, 72 species in 14 genera occur in Australia. Australian agamids are small to moderate-sized lizards. The Water Dragon is Australia’s largest agamid lizard. Water Dragons belong to the genus Physignathus. This genus has only two species world-wide. The eastern water dragon grows to around 80-90cm in length, much of which is tail. Their colour consists of shades of grey or brown with a series of black bands on the back and tail and a black stripe on the side of the head behind the eye. The underside is creamy-white, although males may have a vivid red on some or most of the belly and chest. There are enlarged scales forming a crest down the middle of the head, back and tail. The legs are relatively long and powerful and the strong tail is flattened on the sides to assist with swimming.

This endangered Tawny Rock Dragon Ctenophorus decresii male was seen basking in a rocky outcrop in western NSW during field work for the recently approved Silverton Wind Farm. I like this photo as it provides a link between the dragon and one of the threats to known populations: Competition and habitat degradation by Feral Goats. Just behind this male are some goat scats (poo). In many areas, scats can completely fill the rock crevices that these dragons need for refuge and breeding.
