Varanoid Lizards of the World

Edited by Eric R. Pianka and Dennis R King (Ruth Allen King)

Monitor lizards (genus Varanus) have attracted a great deal of interest. These large and impressive lizards are often the centerpiece of reptile house exhibits. Monitors tend to be fairly wary and difficult to observe; therefore they are not particularly tractable research subjects, but they have nevertheless received an extraordinary amount of attention from devoted students.
