The Amboina sailfin lizard, scientifically known as Hydrosaurus amboinensis, is a fascinating creature that belongs to the Lacertilia family. With its unique sail-like fin on its back, this lizard variety stands out among other reptiles. One captivating image captured at London Zoo in 1929 showcases a vulnerable Sailfin Lizard with a damaged tail, finding solace while resting on a log. The black and white photo adds an air of nostalgia to this remarkable moment. Another member of the sailfin family is the Zebrasoma velifer or Sailfin surgeonfish/tang. This vibrant fish species boasts striking colors and elongated dorsal fins resembling sails gracefully gliding through ocean currents. In contrast to aquatic creatures like the surgeonfish, we have the African sailfin flyingfish (Parexocoetus mento). These incredible beings possess wing-like pectoral fins enabling them to glide above water surfaces for impressive distances. Back in 1928 at London Zoo, another snapshot was taken capturing a vulnerable Sailfin Lizard with a damaged tail resting peacefully on a log. The monochromatic charm of these black and white photos transports us back in time to witness nature's wonders up close. These images serve as reminders of how important it is to protect vulnerable species like the Amboina sailfin lizard. Their existence contributes significantly to our planet's biodiversity and should be cherished for generations to come. (Picture No.
