On the menu: previosly undescribed species of cloning lizard?

 
Wow. Check this story out at National Geographic.

Apparently all the individuals of this species, Leiolepis ngovantrii, are female. They occur in Vietnam and tho' new to science, are well known locally (and apparently appreciated in more than one way).

Thanks to Ugly Overload for the heads up.
