Ever Heard Of The Superb Fan-throated Lizard (Sarada Superba)? This Ground-dwelling Reptile Can Be Found

Ever heard of the superb fan-throated lizard (Sarada superba)? This ground-dwelling reptile can be found in regions of western India. Its body is covered in dusty brown scales that provide perfect camouflage, but males of this species also have a colorful secret: the fan-like structure under their jaws. Also known as a dewlap, this fleshy structure is used for display. It helps males attract mates and intimidate rivals!
