Granite Night Lizard
The granite night lizard (Xantusia henshawi ) is a species of xantusiid lizard endemic to North America.
X. henshawi is found in Mexico in the Mexican state of Baja California, and also in the United States in adjacent southern California.
Granite night lizards are often found on rocky slopes with large exfoliating boulders and abundant crevices, but are occasionally found in coastal sage scrub and chaparral without boulders. They are active in crevices during the day, but move on the surface at night.
