The
Eastern Bearded Dragon (
Pogona barbata) is a
lizard found in wooded parts of
Australia. It is a large species of grey-black colour distinguished from its relative, the
Central Bearded Dragon, by its less robust body and the row of
spines along the lateral edge of the body, which continues over the forearm. It has an adult snout-tail length of about 60 cm (24 in).
