5th pic is not a Nile, it is an ornate monitor (varanus ornatus).

I will say Ornate Nile and Ornate monitor are the same thing.
Just old common name and new scientific name. We are not scientist, dont be too rigorous.

Just enjoy them..

Thanks

The reason for the name change is it is no longer a subspecies of the Nile. Which I believe was changed in 1999.
