This is a unique Indonesian BTS (Tiliqua gigas gigas) from Aru Island may eventually be redescribed and renamed.

No. as far as I know, these are a very very rare BTS here in the US if they are even still here at all.

Very cool!! He looks kind of like Riff-Raff, my gigas-inbetweener, except Riff-Raff has none of the Kei look going on the sides (which really makes that BTS stand out). Very unique animal, love the combined look of all T. gigas species.
