I put a post up about this guy a short while back and didn't have any real leads. I now have a picture although it's a crappy one. The guy I got it from called it a "pink spotted river dragon" but I have never found any info on them. I think it's some type of gonocephalus? He's about 2 feet long snout to the ond of the tail. Picture tells the rest. Any info or thoughts would be great. (also posted this in the general forum)

Looks like a <i>Gonocephalus borneensis</i> from the pic. Surely you are correct with the Genus based on the head shape and spines......
Pretty neat looking little guy.........

I have seen those pics before too. He does look similar, but he has smaller eyes and borneensis doesn't have the green and purple dewlap. It is the closest looking thing I've found too. Thanks for looking .
Beejay- I don't think MHD's have the crest or a dewlap like this guy.
He is for sale if any of you are interested. I will consider any reasonable offer. Just send me a PM.
Maybe he is some type of hybrid of a few different species?

Have your vet take a blood sample and run tests to find out what he is. Goodluck, I would really like to know what he is!

I haven't the slightest clue, but, it's a very neat looking lizard!
