blanford's rock agama
Psammophilus blanfordanus
Blanford's rock agama is a lizard that lives on rocks in southern India. Males change their body color to bright during the breeding season.
Blanford's rock agama is distinguished by the bright breeding coloration of males and its adaptation to life on open rocks without vegetation. It regulates the number of insects and serves as food for predators in rocky areas.
