Gerrhosaurus are large, stout plated lizards, with a short head and large eyes.
Gerrhosaurus is one of many lizards that are armored with bony scales, known as osteoderms, that cover and fuse to the bones of the skull.

 Digimorph - Gerrhosaurus major (Sudan plated lizard)
Gerrhosaurus major, the Sudan plated lizard, occurs in semi-arid areas of eastern and southern Africa, occasionally occupying burrows and termite mounds.
Gerrhosaurus is a member of Scleroglossa (see also Varanus, Lanthanotus), one of the two major squamate clades (the other being Iguania, e.g., Ctenosaura, Phrynosoma).
Within Scleroglossa, Gerrhosaurus resides in Gerrhosauridae (see also Gerrhosaurus nigrolineatus and Tracheloptychus petersi), the hypothesized sister taxon to Cordylidae.

 Digimorph - Gerrhosaurus nigrolineatus (black-lined plated lizard)
Gerrhosaurus nigrolineatus, the fl-lined plated lizard, is widely distributed in dry rocky semi-open habitats in central to southern Africa.
Within Scleroglossa, Gerrhosaurus resides in Gerrhosauridae (see also Gerrhosaurus major and Tracheloptychus petersi), the hypothesized sister taxon to Cordylidae.
The cranial osteoderms in this group have long hampered the study of their cranial bones, and it is difficult to remove the osteoderms that actually coossify with the dorsal cranial bones without damaging the skull.

Gerrhosaurus are not aquatic reptiles by any stretch of the imagination, but one thing they do seem to appreciate is a dip at reasonable intervals.
This either involves placing a receptacle of water in their cage, for example a baking tray (clean or unused), or else running a shallow depth of water in the bath or bathroom sink and letting them soak in it for about ten minutes.

 PLATED LIZARDS: A Guide
Gerrhosaurus and Zonosaurus are the most commonly seen genera in captivity.
