  • date of photo  Sep 22, 2012
  • location   Kelso Dunes (San Bernardino County, California, US)
  • family Phrynosomatidae
  • order Squamata
  • class Reptilia
  • notes   I love the broadly-rounded 'duckbill'-like mouth shape here. This one unfortunately lost its tail.

    View the full-size images to better see details & texture of the scales, eye-lids, 'brown spotted & freckled' color pattern, and the 'third' (parietal) eye' (located medially on the top of the head...a bit behind the eyes).

    Info on Uma scoparia can be found on the species pages at CaliforniaHerps (photos, videos, life history, range map, etc) and the Reptile Database (excellent bibliography).
