Lizard diversity in the Chittagong University Campus (CUC) was studied from August 2012 to

Varanidae) and eight genera {Calotes, Gekko, Hemidactylus, Eutropis, Lygosoma, Scincella,
Sphenomorphus and Varanus) under the Order Squamata were recorded. Family Scincidae comprised the
highest number of species (7 i.e., 41.18%) and Agamidae was the lowest (2 i.e., 11.76%). Status,
distribution and habitat of the lizards in the CUC have been discussed
