16 Appendix 6 Figure A1. Point localities of varanid lizards in this study, showing the distribution range globally. Black solid lines indicate the boundaries among the continents. There are 44 species on Oceania, 35 on Asia, and 5 on Africa. One species (V. griseus) occurred on both Asia and Africa; and 4 species (V. indicus, V. salvadorii, V. salvator, and V. timorensis) occurred on both Asia and Oceania. No species occurred on all three continents. Different colors indicate different species. 49
