The first part of the scientific name for the Honduran
paleate spiny-tailed iguana (Ctenosaura
melanosterna), Ctenosaura,
derives from two Greek words meaning ‘comb lizard’ (3)
and refers to its large, flattened spines (4).
The upper back, chest and forelimbs of the Honduran paleate spiny-tailed iguana
are dark-brown to black, and contrast with the pale blue lower body and tail.
Large tan-coloured scales cover the head, and the eyes are bright orange. The
flap of skin, known as the ‘dewlap’, which hangs from under the chin, is
typically larger and more prominent on males (4)
(5).
Until 1997, the Honduran paleate spiny-tailed iguana was
thought to be conspecific
with the Guatemalan spiny-tailed iguana (Ctenosaura
palearis), but it is now considered a separate species based on
differences in colour, skeletal structure and behaviour (4)
