Description

Tropidurus hispidus, the Guyana collared lizard, Peters's lava lizard, or neotropical lava lizard, is a species of lizard of the Tropiduridae family. It is found in Brazil, Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, and French Guiana. Despite the common name, these reptiles are not related to the collared lizard but are named such for the understated black 'collar' on the throat.

This species is the largest of the Tropidurus genus, reaching 35 cm (14 in) in maximum total length, and about 15 cm (6 in) in snout–vent length. It feeds mostly on invertebrates like ants, spiders and scorpions, but in some cases, can hunt small vertebrates like Hemidactylus mabouia. The males of this species are generally larger than the females.
