Oplurus cuvueri
This lizard is about 16 inches long. Dark ring around it's neck and has a spiny tail. The largest of the Oplurus species.
Found in the dry forests of Western Madagascar.
The picture is taken in a wildlife park West of Antananarivo. The third picture shows him assessing me as a threat.

Thanks! I followed him in a series of photo's and finally he sat on the rock looking me right in the eye.
Very cool spotting Joseph.
