Sceloporus becki, also known as the island fence lizard,[1] is a species of lizard endemic to the Channel Islands of California.[2] [3]
It was once considered a subspecies of the western fence lizard (Sceloporus occidentalis), but is now considered to be its own species.
The specific epithet, becki, is in honor of Rollo Howard Beck, an American ornithologist who collected the first specimens.[4][5]
