Facts[]
Discus is a species of flying lizard that made its home on the rocky shore.
These green-and-yellow lizards took their name from their round wings. These enabled them to make short, quick flights between rocks in pursuit of insects, and to avoid the gulls that preyed on them.

Trivia[]
- The Discus most likely got its name from the snail-genus Discus or the discus-fish.
- Like all animals from Skull Island. It is unknown what they faced during the sinking of the island. Given the multiple expeditions, there may be a chance that a few surviving populations was saved off-land to a more stable enclosure.
