Flying lizard can spread out folds of skin attached to its movable ribs to form "wings" that it uses to glide from tree to tree over distances upwards of 8 meters (25 feet); however, like all modern reptiles, it lacks the ability to sustain powered flight, and is capable only of gliding. Its wings are brightly colored with yellow, black and red spots and stripes, and they provide camouflage when folded. It feeds on arboreal ants and termites.
