Amblyrhynchus — a genus confined to the Galapagos Islands.    From Wordnik.com.  [Journal of researches into the geology and natural history of the various countries visited by H.M.S. Beagle] Reference

These two species of Amblyrhynchus agree, as I have already stated, in their general structure, and in many of their habits.    From Wordnik.com.  [Journal of researches into the geology and natural history of the various countries visited by H.M.S. Beagle] Reference

If this Amblyrhynchus is held and plagued with a stick, it will bite it very severely; but I caught many by the tail, and they never tried to bite me.    From Wordnik.com.  [Journal of researches into the geology and natural history of the various countries visited by H.M.S. Beagle] Reference

The Amblyrhynchus, a remarkable genus of lizards, is confined to this archipelago; there are two species, resembling each other in general form, one being terrestrial and the other aquatic.    From Wordnik.com.  [Journal of researches into the geology and natural history of the various countries visited by H.M.S.

Amblyrhynchus was larger at Albemarle Island than elsewhere; and M. Bibron informs me that he has seen two distinct aquatic species of this genus; so that the different islands probably have their representative species or races of the Amblyrhynchus, as well as of the tortoise.    From Wordnik.com.  [Journal of researches into the geology and natural history of the various countries visited by H.M.S.

It would appear that the birds of this archipelago, not having as yet learnt that man is a more dangerous animal than the tortoise or the Amblyrhynchus, disregard him, in the same manner as in England shy birds, such as magpies, disregard the cows and horses grazing in our fields.    From Wordnik.com.  [Journal of researches into the geology and natural history of the various countries visited by H.M.S.

Marine Iguana (Amblyrhynchus cristatus), the only marine lizard in the world, lives in the Galapagos Islands where the larger adults dive beneath the waves for algae encrusting the rocks.    From Wordnik.com.  [DC's] Reference

Marine iguanas (Amblyrhynchus cristatus) inhabit the coastlines of large and small islands throughout the Galapagos archipelago, providing a rich system to study the spatial and temporal factors influencing the phylogeographic distribution and population structure of a species.    From Wordnik.com.  [BioMed Central - Latest articles] Reference

I have remarked that the marine Amblyrhynchus was larger at Albemarle Island than elsewhere; and M. Bibron informs me that he has seen two distinct aquatic species of this genus; so that the different islands probably have their representative species or races of the Amblyrhynchus, as well as of the tortoise.    From Wordnik.com.  [Chapter XVII] Reference

As I at first observed, these islands are not so remarkable for the number of the species of reptiles, as for that of the individuals, when we remember the well-beaten paths made by the thousands of huge tortoises — the many turtles — the great warrens of the terrestrial Amblyrhynchus — and the groups of the marine species basking on the coast-rocks of every island — we must admit that there is no other quarter of the world where this Order replaces the herbivorous mammalia in so extraordinary a manner.    From Wordnik.com.  [Journal of researches into the geology and natural history of the various countries visited by H.M.S.

He remarks that this law of distribution holds good both with those genera confined to the archipelago, and those distributed in other quarters of the world: in like manner we have seen that the different islands have their proper species of the mundane genus of tortoise, and of the widely distributed American genus of the mocking-thrush, as well as of two of the Galapageian sub-groups of finches, and almost certainly of the Galapageian genus Amblyrhynchus.    From Wordnik.com.  [Chapter XVII] Reference
