You can search under Callopistes flavipunctatus to try to find some info on these guys. Their common name is actually monitor tegu not tegu monitor (sometimes called Peruvian monitor tegus). They are in the Teiidae family.
They're definitely cool lizards but I've never kept them so I can't really offer any husbandry advice.
