GBIFID: 3385157535; Occurrence Remarks: Yesterday morning (10/5) my dad saw this lizard was stuck on one of the mouse sticky pads in the garage. I was not home at the time, and my dad does not know anything about lizards, to know this was a super cool one! He was able to get it off the sticky pad by picking it off and let it free. Today (10/6) my dad saw the lizard under my parked car tire and he didnΓÇÖt know it was the same one. He just said, ΓÇ£come look at this lizard!ΓÇ¥ I got a close look at it and he told me what happened yesterday, and upon closer look I could see the lizard had glue on 2 of its legs, completely sticking to its body. But it was alive. So I called my sister out to help me and we used olive oil to rub it on it and keep rubbing it on it then rinsed it with water a couple times. At first, I was too scared to pick it up so I was just pouring the olive oil on it while it sat there. It bit me twice when I tried picking it up. Finally, it stopped biting and it was calm and cool as a cucumber. It let me run my hand all over its body and down its tail, it let me scrub under its chin, and while I did that it closed its eyes like it felt really good. My sister was even able to pick the sticky stuff off of it with no gloves on and with her long nails and the lizard didnΓÇÖt care. I could also tell it was getting stronger and stronger the more glue we got off it. It was moving a little more in my hand and perking its head up. All legs were moving just fine despite 2 being glued to its body. I would rubbed it with one hand and let it walk onto my other hand while rubbing it. We spent a good 1 hour 45 minutes rinsing it off. It was really cool to feel the lizard and basically do whatever with it, it let us do whatever we wanted with it. It was like it knew it was being healed. It never tried escaping while we picked/scrubbed the glue off. When we poured water over its back, it didnΓÇÖt even squirm or move, it was like he really liked it! And he kept his head up the whole time, very strong, not like he was weak and succumbing to what we were doing. I think he really appreciated it. I also had a layer of olive oil in a small aquarium and soaked him in that. And both legs that were glued looked fantastic when we were done with it. You can see in the one close-up itΓÇÖs chin is clean and itΓÇÖs front feet are unglued and freed. I donΓÇÖt believe that any cuts, or missing scales/fingers occurred when my dad picked it off. To me, the outside of it looked in really good shape. After one last rinse with water, I set it back by my car and it went under the tire again. Hopefully it will be okay. And hopefully my dad will stop using mouse sticky pads. We finished cleaning it up at around 5pm and I went outside at 6:55pm and he was no longer under the tire.;; Coordinate Uncertainty in Meters: 28984.00000.

GBIFID: 891759320; Occurrence Remarks: I observed this lizard, photos attached, in my very small backyard in Irvine, a 2005 development. It was a nice warm day in August 2013. I have only succulent plants in my small yard with most in pots, that have been growing over 5 years. Other side of my block wall is community landscaping. There has been a lot of dirt moving, for housing developments across the Jeffery street. They are also building an extension of nature trail along the drainage from the hills.

GBIFID: 3455931667; Occurrence Remarks: Under the coverboard. The last eight posted observations are firsts. What makes this a first? Alligator lizard#2: ΓÇ£My fellow alligator lizard first to be observed under an old tree stump, whose photos disappeared, has a short-interpolated story to share.ΓÇ¥ Unsteadily stacked tree stumps on a passing truck. Thud, one found its freedom. It became a featured item under a persimmon tree. Heavy from being cut, it provided cover for various spiders, beetles, pillbugs, slugs, centipedes, Jerusalem crickets and other small creatures. Two years later, near a water runoff impression. Rainwater would fill the tiny reservoir where it soaked into the ground. One day, sharp-pointed leaves started growing. Once a grand yucca tree (Yucca elephantipes), over fifty years old, an ornamental plant gave its last curtain call. A carbon capturing and oxygen-producing machine for much of its life found itself back under the persimmon tree, years later crumbling apart and days numbered. The hollow of the trunk provided me with a resting and meal den. From space material it formed and to the universe it returns. Each phase has its own uniqueness in the cycle of existence.;; Coordinate Uncertainty in Meters: 28902.00000.

I think without its tail it would be 3 or 2 and a half inches and with its tail it would be around 10 and a half or 11 inches. It also has a purple or black somewhat forked tongue.

Occurrence Remarks: Large, adult Southern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata), about 7 inches long, kept a close eye on us at Whitewater Preserve in the Mojave desert mountains. My favorite Western Alligator Lizards (Elgaria genus) observations: Identifying Alligator Lizards (Elgaria genus) in California (and the West Coast of North America): California Amphibians and Reptiles: an illustrated field guide to the amphibians and reptiles of California, 2025, pp. 126-129, illus. 302-304, rangemap 455, 494 COMPARE 2 Western Alligator Lizards (Elgaria genus): Southern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata) Northern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria coerulea) The Panamint Alligator Lizard (Elgaria panamintina) is found only in Inyo and Mono Counties COMPARE Southern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata): More yellow or pale color around the pupils compared to darker eyes of Northern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria coerulea). Dark marks or stripes run lengthwise down the belly in the center of the scales. Males have a large, broad, almost triangular head compared to narrower head in females. Southern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata) have a long alligator-like snout and large belly scales with dark markings on or in between the scales. The small legs are sometimes pulled up against the sides which makes them hard to see and can make a lizard appear to be a snake. Northern and Southern Alligator lizards are very similar in appearance, but observing the color of the eye and the position of the dark stripes on the belly can help differentiate them. There are 2 subspecies of Southern Alligator Lizards.

Although tail shape immediately posterior to the cloaca is a good way to differentiate the sexes in many lizard species, it doesnt work for alligator lizards. Male alligator lizards do have a broader, more triangular head, but this characteristic only works for older adult males. COMPARE TO Northern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria coerulea) has darker eyes compared with the lighter eyes of Southern Alligator Lizard: Northern Alligator Lizard - Elgaria coerulea is found only from the Monterey Bay north, and in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Four subspecies of Northern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria coerulea) are recognized: Elgaria coerulea coerulea - San Francisco Alligator Lizard Elgaria coerulea palmeri - Sierra Alligator Lizard Elgaria coerulea principis - Northwestern Alligator Lizard Elgaria coerulea shastensis - Shasta Alligator Lizard CaliforniaHerps: California Amphibians and Reptiles: an illustrated field guide to the amphibians and reptiles of California, 2025, pp. 126-129, illus. 302-304, rangemap 455, 494 Identifying Alligator Lizards in California (and the West Coast of North America): My favorite Western Alligator Lizards (Elgaria genus) observations: Irenes Lizards (Sauria Suborder) observations on INaturalist, worldwide: HERPS: REPTILES AND AMPHIBIANS: Selected References: Amphibians and Reptiles of California: (excellent photos and descriptions): https://californiaherps.com California Amphibians and Reptiles: an illustrated field guide to the amphibians and reptiles of California, by Robert Hansen and Jackson D.

GBIFID: 891028422; Occurrence Remarks: These are descendants from a camouflaged Alligator lizard that stowed away on a tan burlap that I bought at the Huntington Park Home Depot garden center back in spring 2010. She found her way inside the house where she got trapped on a glue trap. My nephews and I rescued her, but in the process lost her tail and set her free in the garden outside. I believe I re-introduced these lizards to the neighborhood since the last time I spotted lizards in the area was more than 25 years ago. I just wish that the gopher snakes, come back so they can take care of the heavy rat population in this area. My friend captured one close to 30 years ago. I wonder if the construction of the Blue Line Metro had anything to do with the disappearance of both Alligator Lizards and Gopher Snakes from the area?;; Coordinate Uncertainty in Meters: 28902.00000.

GBIFID: 1088915826; Occurrence Remarks: I saw your talk at the last First Friday -- while I didnt see any reptiles this weekend, I thought you might be interested in these pictures I took a couple years ago in the Hollywood Hills. I found these guys back by the pool during an open house. April 7, 2013. This one lizard was dragging another dead lizard away by the neck. The second lizard looked pretty dead, but it was long enough ago that Im not 100% certain... I know I watched the one lizard drag the other for a long time (2-3 minutes) across this pool area -- since theyre the same size, the alive lizard was having some trouble. The alive lizard would lose grip and then bite again, always at that same spot by the dead lizards head. When I found them they were out in the open, and eventually the alive lizard pulled the dead one into the brush. These guys were about 4-5 inches long, Id say -- you can sort of see scale in that one picture, where theres a step in the background.

I took some photos in my back yard in Highland Park back on March 26 and Ive been wondering what I saw -- so thank you for the explanation! At the end of the post you ask for more photos, so Im attaching some of the ones I took. Here is some more info about the pictures: I walked down the steps in my back yard and saw the two lizards, utterly motionless, on one of the sunniest places in the yard. Their complete lack of motion made the scene bizarre: I wondered if somehow they had both died in the middle of a fight. I went back up to the house to get my camera; by the time I returned five minutes must have passed yet they were still in the exact same position. This convinced me even more that they were dead. I took 5-6 photos, then suddenly they darted away -- I started with surprise.

GBIFID: 1880597578; Occurrence Remarks: Observation and photo by Bob and Mar Adler, sent to rascals@nhm.org. The alligator lizards are rarely seen. And, since we have cats in the neighborhood, many of the alligators we see have lost their tails. A couple years ago I did find a pair of alligators hard at work mating. They remained co-joined from about 4PM until around 10AM the next day. What was a surprise for me occurred a couple of hours later (early evening) as the pair had moved slightly to the point where they were now blocking the space where the garage door would smash them if I were to close the door. So, I carefully dragged the pair clear of the garage and closed it. They were totally oblivious! - Bob and Mar Adler;; Coordinate Uncertainty in Meters: 28846.00000.

GBIFID: 1088948245; Occurrence Remarks: At approximately 8:45 AM,there was a thick and misty overcast, and while I had been relaying bundles of dead grass from a large mound and into my yard waste can, I caught sight of a small tail slithering its way into the deeper layers of the grass mound. I grabbed a couple of empty dog treat containers (measure 17x9.5 cm at the base) to catch them for photos, and when I pulled another layer of grass back, I was surprised to find two Southern Alligator Lizards (a male (with a complete tail) and female (with a regenerating tail)), with the male firmly gripping the female by the back of her head and trying to drag her deeper into cover. I had attempted to corral them both into the container in hopes that I could photograph them in the act, but the male released her when I finally corralled him into a container, and I caught her a few seconds later. They were eventually released near where I found them.;; Coordinate Uncertainty in Meters: 28846.00000.

Occurrence Remarks: Small alligator lizard, about 2 inches long observed in Palo Corona Regional Park. Photo credit: Erika A. My favorite Western Alligator Lizards (Elgaria genus) observations: Identifying Alligator Lizards in California (And the West Coast of North America): COMPARE 2 Western Alligator Lizards (Elgaria genus): Southern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata) Northern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria coerulea) has darker eyes compared with the lighter eyes of Southern Alligator Lizards: Northern Alligator Lizard - Elgaria coerulea is found only from the Monterey Bay north, and in the Sierra Nevada mountains. COMPARE Characteristics of Southern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata): More yellow or pale color around the pupils compared to darker eyes of Northern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria coerulea) Dark marks or stripes run lengthwise down the belly in the center of the scales. Males have a large, broad, almost triangular head compared to narrower head in females. Identifying Alligator Lizards in California (And the West Coast of North America): Southern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata) have a long alligator-like snout and large belly scales with dark markings on or in between the scales. The small legs are sometimes pulled up against the sides which makes them hard to see and can make a lizard appear to be a snake. Northern and Southern Alligator lizards are very similar in appearance, but observing the color of the eye and the position of the dark stripes on the belly can help differentiate them.

Identifying Alligator Lizards in California (And the West Coast of North America): Southern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata) have a long alligator-like snout and large belly scales with dark markings on or in between the scales. The small legs are sometimes pulled up against the sides which makes them hard to see and can make a lizard appear to be a snake. Northern and Southern Alligator lizards are very similar in appearance, but observing the color of the eye and the position of the dark stripes on the belly can help differentiate them. There are 2 subspecies of Southern Alligator Lizards. Southern Alligator Lizards in a mating ritual where male latches on to females neck for up to 2 days: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/212435382 Alligator lizard mating behavior-- You can learn more about this research here (per INat gregpauly): https://nhm.org/stories/look-out-amorous-alligator-lizards and YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtUFZMEt1Fw&fbclid= MALE vrs FEMALE: Alligator Lizards per INat gregpauly: There is not a good way to differentiate males vs females of this species based on external appearance. Although tail shape immediately posterior to the cloaca is a good way to differentiate the sexes in many lizard species, it doesnt work for alligator lizards. Male alligator lizards do have a broader, more triangular head, but this characteristic only works for older adult males. Northern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria coerulea) Northern Alligator Lizards have darker eyes compared with the lighter eyes of Southern Alligator Lizards: Northern Alligator Lizard - Elgaria coerulea is found only from the Monterey Bay north, and in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Four subspecies are recognized: Elgaria coerulea coerulea - San Francisco Alligator Lizard Elgaria coerulea palmeri - Sierra Alligator Lizard Elgaria coerulea principis - Northwestern Alligator Lizard Elgaria coerulea shastensis - Shasta Alligator Lizard Identifying Alligator Lizards in California (And the West Coast of North America): My favorite Western Alligator Lizards (Elgaria genus) observations: Irenes Lizards (Sauria suborder) observations on INaturalist, worldwide (includes geckos, chameleons, iguanas, skinks, and more): Herps: REPTILE and AMPHIBIAN References: Reptile Database (worldwide) https://reptile-database.reptarium.cz/ Amphibians Amphibiaweb: https://amphibiaweb.org/site.html Amphibians and Reptiles of California: https://californiaherps.com Gopher Snake vs Rattlesnake: 5 Key Differences: https://a-z-animals.com/blog/gopher-snake-vs-rattlesnake/ Identifying Alligator Lizards in California (And the West Coast of North America): California Snakes Range Maps: https://californiaherps.com/snakes/snakesmaps.html Amphibians and Reptiles of the Anza-Borrego Desert Region: A Photographic Field Guide, L.

GBIFID: 5153680648; Occurrence Remarks: Male Alligator Lizards learn the hard way what its like to fight over a female -- an 11 photo story. 1 We first encounter two males actively trying to mate with the same female. On the left is YellowBoy (I name for his back color), and on right is a somewhat bigger GrayBoy (color of his back), atop the female NewTail (shes replaced a tail). YellowBoy has grabbed her at the neck, on her left side, a standard mating tactic, but GrayBoy, wants to intrude [10:17:55 a.m.] 2 By this shot, GrayBoy has grabbed NewTail below her right front leg, and together the males have pushed all of them in a half-circle [10:18:25] 3 By this time, the males have pushed them all another half-circle (e.g., a full circle from first photo), and YellowBoy is maneuvering with his tail to align his vent with that of NewTail [10:18:55] 4 By now, the group has turned another quarter-circle, both males have strong holds on NewTail, and it looks to me that YellowBoy is getting to close to the point of action insertion, if not there already [10:19:36] 5 Yet, a minute later, YellowBoy has lost his mating position as larger GrayBoy has pushed them all another quarter-circle [10:21:03] 6 Alas, this narrative was interrupted by a commercial break. A Columbian Skipper, a rare butterfly in this county, landed very close and enticed us to see what it was selling. By the time I turned back to the lizard action, about 90 seconds later, the female has escaped the clutches of both males! My wife, who was video-tapping with her iPhone, was also distracted by the butterfly but she did see NewTail scurry into a narrow crack at the bottom of the fire lookout station, leaving the males to fight each other instead [10:22:41] 7 The fight heats up, with one flipping the other onto his back by using a head-lock with its mouth [10:23:05] 8 This propels them both belly-up, with the one being held showing a discharge from the vent (?) [10:23:07} 9 And a split-second later both are back on their feet, facing off teeth to teeth with YellowBoy to the right and GrayBoy to the left, [10:23:13] and 10 At next click, YellowBoy attacks [10:23:14]. In short, GrayBoy intruded on YellowBoys trist, and basically knocked him off his mating attempt, and now YellowBoy was, well, quite unhappy. 11 We were distracted by another butterfly, but I checked back two minutes later, and only GrayBoy was left, skirting a power box attached to the fire lookout, and looking rather beat up [10:25:03]. Any assumptions by me in this narrative may be mistaken. See comments below by Greg Pauly of LACM, who is an actual herpetologist;; Coordinate Uncertainty in Meters: 4.00000.

Males have a large, broad, almost triangular head compared to narrower head in females. Identifying Alligator Lizards in California (And the West Coast of North America): Southern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata) have a long alligator-like snout and large belly scales with dark markings on or in between the scales. The small legs are sometimes pulled up against the sides which makes them hard to see and can make a lizard appear to be a snake. Northern and Southern Alligator lizards are very similar in appearance, but observing the color of the eye and the position of the dark stripes on the belly can help differentiate them. There are 2 subspecies of Southern Alligator Lizards. Southern Alligator Lizards in a mating ritual where male latches on to females neck for up to 2 days: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/212435382 Alligator lizard mating behavior-- You can learn more about this research here (per INat gregpauly): https://nhm.org/stories/look-out-amorous-alligator-lizards and YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtUFZMEt1Fw&fbclid= MALE vrs FEMALE: Alligator Lizards per INat gregpauly: There is not a good way to differentiate males vs females of this species based on external appearance. Although tail shape immediately posterior to the cloaca is a good way to differentiate the sexes in many lizard species, it doesnt work for alligator lizards. Male alligator lizards do have a broader, more triangular head, but this characteristic only works for older adult males. Northern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria coerulea) Northern Alligator Lizards have darker eyes compared with the lighter eyes of Southern Alligator Lizards: Northern Alligator Lizard - Elgaria coerulea is found only from the Monterey Bay north, and in the Sierra Nevada mountains.

Males have a large, broad, almost triangular head compared to narrower head in females. Identifying Alligator Lizards in California (And the West Coast of North America): Southern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata) have a long alligator-like snout and large belly scales with dark markings on or in between the scales. The small legs are sometimes pulled up against the sides which makes them hard to see and can make a lizard appear to be a snake. Northern and Southern Alligator lizards are very similar in appearance, but observing the color of the eye and the position of the dark stripes on the belly can help differentiate them. There are 2 subspecies of Southern Alligator Lizards. Southern Alligator Lizards in a mating ritual where male latches on to females neck for up to 2 days: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/212435382 Alligator lizard mating behavior-- You can learn more about this research here (per INat gregpauly): https://nhm.org/stories/look-out-amorous-alligator-lizards and YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtUFZMEt1Fw&fbclid= MALE vrs FEMALE: Alligator Lizards per INat gregpauly: There is not a good way to differentiate males vs females of this species based on external appearance. Although tail shape immediately posterior to the cloaca is a good way to differentiate the sexes in many lizard species, it doesnt work for alligator lizards. Male alligator lizards do have a broader, more triangular head, but this characteristic only works for older adult males. Northern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria coerulea) Northern Alligator Lizards have darker eyes compared with the lighter eyes of Southern Alligator Lizards: Northern Alligator Lizard - Elgaria coerulea is found only from the Monterey Bay north, and in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Four subspecies are recognized: Elgaria coerulea coerulea - San Francisco Alligator Lizard Elgaria coerulea palmeri - Sierra Alligator Lizard Elgaria coerulea principis - Northwestern Alligator Lizard Elgaria coerulea shastensis - Shasta Alligator Lizard Identifying Alligator Lizards in California (And the West Coast of North America): My favorite Western Alligator Lizards (Elgaria genus) observations: Irenes Lizards (Sauria suborder) observations on INaturalist, worldwide (includes geckos, chameleons, iguanas, skinks, and more): Herps: REPTILE and AMPHIBIAN References: Reptile Database (worldwide) https://reptile-database.reptarium.cz/ Amphibians Amphibiaweb: https://amphibiaweb.org/site.html Amphibians and Reptiles of California: https://californiaherps.com Gopher Snake vs Rattlesnake: 5 Key Differences: https://a-z-animals.com/blog/gopher-snake-vs-rattlesnake/ Identifying Alligator Lizards in California (And the West Coast of North America): California Snakes Range Maps: https://californiaherps.com/snakes/snakesmaps.html Amphibians and Reptiles of the Anza-Borrego Desert Region: A Photographic Field Guide, L.

I set up a couple UV blacklights near the housing to survey for nocturnal insects and walked some trials after dark. The field trips were organized by US Fish & Wildlifes Environmental Education Specialist, Tia Glagolev, and Mr. Reynolds from Newark Memorial High. 315 students from Newark were split up into groups and led by volunteers Ken, Mike and Larry, USFWS Biologist Susan Euing, and Erika and I from the San Francisco Bay Wildlife Society.

I decided to complete the loop rather than turning around so I limited my stops on Eagle Peak Trail, which, in any case, was very steep and slippery in some sections and required attention that wouldnt have allowed for noticing as many species. I didnt have trekking poles and was carrying lots of gear so it was rough! Got here by riding BART from Berryessa to 19th ST Oakland before transferring to Yellow line to Concord, then took the 10 bus to Clayton and bicycled to the park entrance.
