Yea, their definetely the same species, yours must be just a young one. I know mine is at least a few years old. How long have you had yours? I just got mine last Monday and already I love this little lizard!

Snakemann87, I guess they look kind of similar but long-tails are lacertids in the family lacertidae and plated lizards are in the family gerrhosauridae. So no they are not closely related.
