Best Answer

The highly venomous yellow spotted lizard featured in the novel "Holes" does not exist. It is purely fictitious.

However, there is such a lizard known as a Yellow-spotted tropical night lizard (lepidophyma flavimaculatum). it lives in tropical forests in Central America and Mexico, and it is not venomous, though it can be aggressive when handled.

The only known yellow spotted lizard is the "yellow-spotted tropical night lizard" which lives in Central America. It prefers living in decaying logs in wet climates and is not known to have an aversion to onions.

As the lizard in question, from the book Holes, was in the desert, it is unlikely that they were the same lizard.

It's therefore likely that the lizard is fiction.
