Lacertidae

See also: Lizard (homonymy)

The Lacertidés ( Lacertidae ) are one small Saurien S to which many lizards belong.

One counts approximately 180 S of Lacertidés in most of the Africa, Asia and Europe. They all are of the active and nimble diurnal animals.

The three quarters of the European lizards are of Lacertidés.

Largest is a green lizard, the Lézard ocelé (Lacerta lepida) , which measures up to 20 cm of the muzzle at the cesspool. Often the males relate to the sides of the blue punctuations. It meets in the Iberian peninsula and the south of France.

One of most common is the Lézard of the walls (Podarcis muralis) , small lacertidé brown of moderate Europe (limit northern: Belgium, Netherlands common until in Romania). It is a climbing species and it is that which is most familiar near the dwellings.
