Chlamydosaurus kingii
El clamidosaurio o lagarto de gorguera (Chlamydosaurus kingii) es un agámido único, capaz de correr sobre sus patas posteriores y con una característica única, un collar que en la foto se encuentra plegado, pero es capaz de extenderlo alrededor de su cabeza gracias a unas estructuras cartilaginosas. Sin duda un reptil increíble aunque es una imagen como esta en una instalación tan pequeña no se puede ver toda su belleza.
