Plateau Horned Lizard
Scientific Name: Phrynosoma Orbiculare
Probably the most prevalent of the horned lizard species located in Mexico, the Plateau Horned Lizard is found at high elevations (approximately 4,500 to 11,000 feet). He lives throughout the plateaus and mountain ranges of central Mexico and northward into the highland corridors of the Sierra Madre Occidental and Oriental. It and its subsequent subspecies can be found from eastern Sonora and Western Chihuahua southward through western Durango and from Zacatecas and Nuevo Leon.
