Reptilia Podarcis pityusensis, commonly known as the Ibiza Wall Lizard, is a distinct species of lizard endemic to the Balearic Islands, particularly Ibiza and Formentera. While not native to the Comunidad Valenciana, it is often mentioned due to its unique presence in the nearby Balearic archipelago. Here are some key characteristics of the species:

• Appearance: The Ibiza Wall Lizard is typically small to medium-sized, with a length of up to 8 cm not including the tail, which can be longer than the body itself. Its coloration can vary widely, from greens and browns to blues, often adapting to its specific local habitat for camouflage.
• Habitat: This species is adaptable and can be found in a variety of environments including rocky areas, shrublands, and even urban settings. They are most commonly seen basking in the sun on rocks and walls.
• Behavior: Known for their agile movements, these lizards are diurnal, primarily active during the day. They are also territorial, often seen defending their space from other males.
• Diet: The diet of Podarcis pityusensis mainly consists of insects and other small invertebrates, playing a critical role in controlling their populations.
• Conservation Status: While currently not under significant threat, the conservation of their natural habitats is crucial, as the introduction of non-native species and habitat destruction could pose future risks.

In the Comunidad Valenciana, while you may not encounter this specific lizard, its relative, the Podarcis hispanicus, or Iberian Wall Lizard, can be found and shares similar habitats and behaviors.
