A lateral-view illustration shows an armored lizard with a robust body and spiny tail. The species is Ouroborus cataphractus (O. cataphractus), a reptile in the order Squamata, family Cordylidae. The organism exhibits keeled, overlapping scales and ringed caudal spines, with short forelimbs and hindlimbs and a blunt head. In hierarchical terms, it depicts an entire vertebrate organism with integumentary structures (scales/scutes) on the body wall. In herpetology and comparative anatomy, these keratinized scales function primarily in mechanical defense against predators. The view highlights the lateral trunk, limbs, and caudal region.
