La Palma giant lizard
The La Palma giant lizard ("Gallotia auaritae") is a giant lacertid historically living on the island of La Palma (Canary Islands, Spain); its habitat ranged from sea level up to altitudes of 800 m.

It probably lives in xerophytic vegetation and is presumably an egg-laying species.

Generally considered extinct in historic times, there were sightings (including photographic evidence) of a large lacertid in 2007 which may possibly correspond to this species, although these sightings have been assessed as doubtful.
