Shinisaurus Crocodilurus: (Chinese Crocodile Lizard)
The semiaquatic Chinese crocodile lizard is found only in China and Vietnam. It is gray-brown with red-orange markings along its throat and sides. Two rigid rows of scales along its tail give this reptile a crocodilian appearance.

Their Habitat
​
There are perhaps no more than 1,000 individuals of the Endangered Chinese crocodile lizard — which is found in southern China and northern Vietnam — remaining in the wild today.

Saltuarius Kateae: (Mount Marsh Leaf-Tailed Gecko)

Mourning Geckos are an arboreal species, requiring an enclosure with emphasis on height over width. The specifics of an enclosure will depend heavily on the age of the Gecko being cared for.
