Lizard ID - Hungary.

[Mike Richardson]

Hi

A friend took this photo in Hungary two weeks ago and was told by his guide that it's some species of wall lizard. I have an idea what it is, but thought I'd ask the experts first! I don't think it's a Podarcis.



I can provide exact location details although I don't think you'll need them.

Many thanks.

Many thanks. I thought as much but just wanted to make sure.
