Pilbara mulga monitor (Varanus bushi)

Varanus bushi is most similar to the stripe-tailed goanna (Varanus caudolineatus) and the pygmy Mulga goanna (Varanus gilleni) of all monitor lizards. However, the bush monitor can be distinguished from these other two species by some morphological and genetic differences.
Distinguished from most others by the combination of a longitudinally striped and only moderately spinose tail, unkeeled head and body scales, non-overlapping ventral primary scales, and an absence of longitudinal streaks on throat. Distinguished from V. gilleni by its slightly lesser average size, more elongate dorsal scales, more densely spotted venter and more irregularly spotted dorsum, less prominent linear patterning on the head and neck, and its more numerous presacral vertebrae, pedal subdigital lamellae and ventral scales. Males are further distinguished from V. gilleni by having hemipenes with an undivided inner hemibaculum. Distinguished from V. caudolineatus by its slightly greater average and maximum size, proportionally shorter fore- and hind-limbs, more elongate snout, higher average midbody and ventral scale counts, higher average sub-digital lamellar counts on pes, more finely scaled and less rugose proximal portion of the tail, more numerous presacral vertebrae, less conspicuously spotted head, more orderly alignment of dorsal pattern into transverse rows, and presence of transverse bands on the basal one-third of the tail. Males are further distinguished from V. caudolineatus by having a shorter hemipen*s with more numerous papillose distal frills.

The black-spotted ridge-tailed monitor (Varanus baritji), also called black-spotted spiny-tailed monitor and yellow-throated monitor, is a monitor lizard native to Australia's tropical Northern Territory. It is listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List as it is considered common and not threatened.

It was first described in 1987.

It is also known as White's dwarf goanna.

The species name of this lizard, baritj, is an Australian aboriginal word for white.

Look a this little beauty !
A young Dumeril's monitor (Varanus dumerilii)

Dumeril's monitor is found in southern Burma and north of the Isthmus of Kra to Kanchanaburi Province in Thailand, as well as in Peninsular Malaysia, throughout Borneo, Sumatra, Riau, Bangka–Belitung and other smaller islands of Indonesia.

Their habitat is dense evergreen forests with high humidity and mangrove swamps.

Adult Dumeril's monitors are largely dark coffee-brown in colour, with occasional brighter indistinct crossbars. For juveniles the colors and patterns are quite different. The major color is a dark varnish black which is interrupted by several yellow crossways bars on the back. Juveniles have shiny orange red or, sometimes yellow heads. This youth coloration disappears after only 4–8 weeks. Adult Dumeril's can reach up to 4.5 m in total length (including tail) although typical length is 4 m long.

This monitor is a crab specialist. However, it has been observed eating snails, insects, molluscs, fish, frogs, and smaller rodents. Little is known overall about this species compared to other monitor lizards.

Solomon island spiny neck monitor (Varanus spinulosus) 😍😍

Endemic to the Solomon island (Isabel and San Jorge) he's one of the most poorly know varanids.
Recent observations on the hemipeneal morphology of V. spinulosus have demonstrated that he's not a member of the V. indicus complexe, as previously tought.
