On my personal site (URL below), I have pages for each of the various reptiles I've found during my travels (if you're curious, click on Chris/Reptiles/Field Trips). On each page, I give a translation of the scientific name (Latin and Greek roots, and people for whom the animal is named). However, I'm at a loss for info regarding the following names. If you can assist, please email me.



Kingii for frilled dragon (who is the King this name honors?)

Liasis for olive python

Varanus panoptes

Eulamprus quoyii

Suta

Carlia

Lampropholis

Gehyra mutilate

Cosymbotus




Thanks!
