Agama boueti, also known commonly as the Mali agama, is a species of lizard in the family Agamidae. The species is native to West Africa.
The specific name, boueti, is in honor of Georges Bouet (1869–1957), who was a French ornithologist and physician. [2]
A. boueti is found in Burkina Faso, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, and Senegal. [3]
The preferred natural habitats of A. boueti are savanna, shrubland, and rocky areas. [1]
A small lizard, [3] A. boueti may attain a snout-to-vent length (SVL) of 7.7 cm (3.0 in), and a total length (including a long tail) of 22.2 cm (8.7 in). [4]
A. boueti preys upon grasshoppers, ants, beetles, and other small arthropods. It also eats succulent plants. [1]

The common agama, red-headed rock agama, or rainbow agama is a species of lizard from the family Agamidae found in most of sub-Saharan Africa. To clear up historical confusion based on Linnaeus and other authors, Wagner, et al. (2009) designated a neotype for the species, using a previously described specimen from Cameroon in the collection of the Zoologisches Forschungsmuseum Alexander Koenig in Bonn. The species name was formerly applied to a paraphyletic collection of taxa, and mitochondrial DNA analysis of various populations indicates they represent separate species., Consequently, three former subspecies A. a. africana, A. a. boensis, and A. a. mucosoensis are now considered separate species, and A. a. savattieri is considered synonymous with A. africana.
