Guess the herp

[Kitah]

Pogona barbata?

 

[-Matt-]

Frilly

 

[DanTheMan]

I knew you would get it straight away. Although I don't recall inviting you to guess? :lol:

Extra 2 points for whoever can guess the locality - Matt excluded

 

[Kitah]

Doesn't look anything like any of the one's I've seen around here, so west somewhere? NT?

 

[blakehose]

Mt Glorious ?

 

[-Matt-]

Oh really? I based my guess off the fact that those leaves look similar to ones that are found in a certain national park near here..

I'm not giving away the locality, but I think a visit to there is well overdue!

 

[DanTheMan]

Nope and nope!
It's def. none of those, but I'm not going to get too specific actually, not too common in this area at all.
So therefore blakehose was the closest for somewhere in SE Qld

It certainly is!

 

[Kitah]

mhmm.. I did originally say south of where I am (Tville) but then edited it- looked up the distribution and it said northern and western QLD + Aus! It lies! I shall eventually learn to not trust everything I read on the internet, from google. maybe.

 

[blakehose]

Alright, your turn Matt. Last one before bed... up at 5am to go to Tassie tomorrow.

The distribution maps only show areas where the density of the animal meets the requirement. There are always stray populations.

Mhmm, I'd never stopped to think about that. It makes sense, I just never thought of it as a density thing.

And yes, I'm an idiot :lol:

 

[-Matt-]

Someone can take my turn...can't upload pictures at the moment.

 

[Kitah]

[slacker]

[Kitah]

[slacker]

File snake? :lol:

 

[Kitah]

:lol:

need I even comment?

 

[slacker]

If I had to guess seriously based only on the last photo, I'd say one of the Gehyra. No thoughts on species though. Am I on the right track?

 

[-Matt-]

Oedura of some sort? Taken at night so the normal colours are all faded? lol

That was my next guess... an opaque Oedura robusta heh.
