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!
