A. nigripes

Acanthodactylus nigripes, commonly known as the black-footed spiny-footed lizard, is a species found in North Africa and parts of the Middle East. It has a slender body, often with striped patterns, and distinctive black coloration on its feet or toes. These lizards are adapted to hot, arid environments like deserts and rocky areas. They are diurnal, active during the day, and primarily feed on insects. Their ability to thermoregulate and hide in rocky crevices helps them survive extreme temperatures, making them well-suited for life in dry, open habitats.
