Liolaemus martorii is a small lizard from Patagonia. It lives in cold dry regions of southern Argentina and is adapted to life among stones and grass.
Liolaemus martorii differs from related species by viviparity in cold climates and a special scale pattern. The species helps maintain the balance of insects in the steppe nature of Argentina.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
