	Transcaspian Region - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Transcaspian Region, a 1911 Russian territory to the east of the Caspian Sea, bounded south by Khorasan and Afghanistan, north by the former Russian province of Uralsk, northeast by Khiva and Bokhara and southeast by Afghan Turkestan.
		A mountain chain, comparable in length to the Alps, separates the deserts of the Transcaspian from the highlands of Khorasan.
		It begins in the Krasnovodsk peninsula of the Caspian, under the names of Kuryanyn-kary and Great Balkans, whose masses of granite and other crystalline rock reach an altitude of some 5350 feet.

	Lizards of Pakistan: Desert Monitor, Transcaspian Desert Monitor, Indo-Pak Desert Monitor
		The Transcaspian Desert Monitor is distinguished from other races of V.griseus largely by the shape of its tail, which is laterally compressed in contrast to the tails of other races, which tend to be more or less rounded in cross section.
		In many areas they feed on hatchling tortoises which emerge in the spring and excavate and consume tortoise eggs which are laid in May. They also eat small mammals, including the giant gerbil and young hares.
		Transcaspian monitors will also prey on smaller members of their own species (Makarov 1985).

	Supply of Gas:
		Currently, Turkmenistan is exporting some of its natural gas to Iran by way of a pipeline in the Korpedzhe field in the west of the country, to the town of Kurt-Kui in northern Iran.
		In June 1998, Amoco Eurasia, along with a consortium of Bechtel Enterprises, and General Electric Capital, proposed to build a 1,200 km pipeline to Turkey, with an initial capacity of 350 bcf, from western Turkmenistan, near Turkmenbashi, across the Caspian Sea to Baku, Azerbaijan.
		The additional implementation of a TransCaspian Oil pipeline however would reduce this estimated cost, since there would be no need to re-survey the seabed.

		The Transcaspian republics are becoming more eager to work together and with Russia to respond to common threats to regional security.
		Conversely, the increased American presence in the Transcaspian region has intensified Russian fears that its influence in the region could deteriorate further.
