A Common Green Forest Lizard (Calotes calotes), locally known as a 'Heeraluwa', camouflages against a stone wall near the Warawala Old Steel Bridge in Ruwanwella, Sri Lanka. This species is native to South Asia and is a prime example of the rich biodiversity found within the tropical ecosystems of the Sabaragamuwa Province (Photo by Dilantha Walpola/NurPhoto).
