Hydrosaurus microlophus (
Bleeker, 1860)
|
The Indonesian giant sailfin dragon (Hydrosaurus microlophus) is a species of agamid native to South Sulawesi Indonesia. [1] It is the heaviest and longest species of sailfin lizard, making it the largest of all the Agamidae.[ citation needed] It is often mistaken for H. amboinensis[ by whom?] because of the incorrect information of Hydrosaurus amboinensis being the largest of the sailfin dragons. [2]
H. microlophus is oviparous.
