The female is more slender than the male and has a more uniform coloration, often displaying between two and four light bands bordered by black spots.\nDistribution and habitat:\nThe European green lizard is native to southeastern Europe. Its range extends from southern Germany, Austria, eastern Italy, Croatia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro and Greece to southern Ukraine, Romania, Bulgaria and western Turkey. It is known from elevations up to 2,200 above sea level and its typical habitat is dense bushy vegetation in open woodland, hedgerows, field margins, embankments and bramble thickets. In the northern part of its range it may be found on bushy heathland and in the southern part it prefers damp locations (source Wikipedia). \n\nThis Picture is made during a Vacation in Bulgaria in May 2018.$

The European green lizard (Lacerta viridis) is a vibrant, sun-loving reptile native to southeastern Europe, often seen basking in warm, rocky habitats like those found in Montenegro. Males can grow up to 40 cm and are especially striking during the breeding season, with vivid green bodies and bright blue throats. An agile climber and fast runner, it feeds on insects, spiders, and occasionally fruit. Though not dangerous, it may bite if threatened. This species plays a vital role in local ecosystems by controlling insect populations and serving as prey for birds and snakes.
