The Monitory Lizard – Shaw and Nodder – 1790

The Monitory or Black Lizard first described with this image by Shaw. The name “Monitor” came from a belief that in the vicinity of a Crocodile this lizard would produce a high shrill cry which would provide a warning that Crocodiles are about. Seemingly, not to be relied upon.

Copper engraved and hand coloured by Shaw & Nodder and published in London in 1790 (dated in the plate). Shaw was in charge of the Natural History Department at the British Museum. Frederick Nodder was a natural history artist and worked for Banks on his Florilegium.
