Here are some pictures of the T. Duseni, these are the ones many of us would love to have in the US, however, I doubt we will ever see them in our pet trade.

The ones above look to be sub-adult, but here is an adult.

This next picture is one of Bert's females, he claims she only has this color right before she sheds. After shedding she is said to look like a normal Black and White.

Strange how their loreal scales are uneven, a large rear scale and a smaller frontal scale. Very interesting, yet another tupinambis that will not likely see my collection because of the genocide for their hides. Depressing.

because you can't import/export them unless you have a CITES license silly

well then, it's still possible to import them isn't it?

all that is required is the CITES license, and there certainly a few who have that license. if that is all that is required, then they can still be imported. must be something else that is stopping it, if there is...

I think the argentine borders are closed to exporting tegus :roll:

is that the reason why? even if you have a CITES permit? that blows then. it would be cool though, to get some of those in.

No, only the one in the last picture, it is one of Berts normal BnWs. The rest of the pictures are T. Duseni, or the Yellow tegu, they stay yellow.
