Basiliscus (lizard)

Basiliscus is a genus of large corytophanid lizards, commonly known as basilisks, which are endemic to southern Mexico, Central America, and northern South America. The genus contains four species, which are commonly known as the Jesus Christ lizard, or simply the Jesus lizard, due to their ability to run across water for significant distances, due to the large surface area of their feet, before sinking.

Basilisk

In ancient European bestiaries and folklore, a basilisk is a legendary reptile reputed to be a serpent king, who causes any being to die when glanced at. According to the Naturalis Historia of Pliny the Elder, the basilisk of Cyrene is a small snake, "being not more than twelve inches in length", that is so venomous, it leaves a wide trail of deadly venom in its path, its gaze likewise just as lethal.
