Interesting though I'd like more pix.
Looks like a nice regular mangrove monitor to me.

I keep going through old posts and it sucks to see some of the most interesting ones have the fewest replies.
That is awesome, I was reading about that a few months back. The indicus family has been having tons of new speices/localities found. I have come across pictures forums and internet of all kinds of different indicus without a species name yet. From my understanding, some people are protecting their finds so the animals arent extracted by collectors. Great stuff, I love seeing new monitor species and localities.
