Description

The mophead iguana is a monotypic genus of neotropical ground lizards. Its sole member, Uranoscodon superciliosus, is commonly known as the diving lizard, brown tree climber or mophead iguana.  U. superciliosus is found in the Amazonian regions of Brazil, French Guiana, Guyana, Suriname, eastern Venezuela, eastern Colombia, Bolivia and northeastern Peru. However, in Peru it is known only a single locality near to the Colombian/Brazilian border and it has not been recorded in Ecuador.

This species occurs in igapó and várzea flood forests and in riparian areas of terre firme forests, i.e. forests not subjected to seasonal flooding.
