Notes
Park Species Detail: Hammerson (2005): In 2004, tree lizards were relatively common throughout the western end of the park from high to low elevations. While Fallon (1997) spent considerable time setting traps for this species, she was never able to capture one, though she may not have searched the specific habitat favored by tree lizards.
