The keeled earless lizard is a small reptile up to 17 centimeters long. It has no external ear openings, and the scales on its back are covered with noticeable keels.
The keeled earless lizard differs from related species by its keeled scales and complete absence of ears. It is important for nature because it regulates insect populations and serves as food for snakes and birds.
Legendary longevity: over 100 years. Galapagos tortoises, Greenland sharks, ocean quahogs celebrate with family once every 4 years
