The Amboina sail-finned lizard is a large agamid lizard, growing to over one metre (3.3 ft) in length. It is often confused as and for the largest of the sailfin dragons, however that title belongs to Hydrosaurus microlophus, with the second largest of the sailfin dragons being Hydrosaurus celebensis. It is found in wooded habitats near water in New Guinea and Ambon/Amboina Island (Indonesia). Although it has been reported from the Philippines and Sulawesi, a genetic study have shown that all in the former country are Philippine sailfin lizards H. pustulatus, while genetic and morphological studies have shown that individuals from the latter island belong to two separate species to which the names H. celebensis and H. microlophus are available. Adult male Amboina sail-finned lizards have outer edges of the eyes that are medium-dark clear blue and no nose crest, which are some of the features that separate them from the Sulawesi species.
