Prokletije Rock Lizard
Dinarolacerta montenegrina
Dinarolacerta montenegrina, also known as Prokletije rock lizard, is a species of lizard in the family Lacertidae. It is known with certainty only from the Prokletije mountain massif in Montenegro. The identity of a population of similar lizards in Albania needs confirmation.
Dinarolacerta montenegrina was first described in 2007. It differs genetically and morphologically from the most closely related species, Dinarolacerta mosorensis: in the exterior morphology, it is smaller; it has only one postnasal scale on one or both sides of its head; it has fewer temporal and postocular scales. The skeleton differs from D. mosorensis by its reduced supraocular osteoderms and the absence of an anteromedial process on the postocular bone.
