Plateau Fence Lizard (Sceloporus tristichus)Observer
msrDescription
You can't see it well in the photo because of the unfortunate position of the shadow, but the tail is almost black, with two thick white stripes on it. However, in a close-up it looks like there is an outer layer of scales missing from the tail, so the dark color may simply be uninformative.
