water dragon
Semi-aquatic Australian reptile
Water dragon refers to several species of semi-aquatic lizards native to Asia and Australia, typically green with banded tails, found near streams and rivers where they bask on branches and dive when threatened.
In fantasy and mythology, water dragons are serpentine creatures associated with rivers, lakes, or seas—often depicted as benevolent guardians of waterways in East Asian traditions.
The Chinese water dragon sat motionless on its basking log.
