You can now add the Komodo dragon to your list of poisonious lizards, so, now there are three of them in the world. Except that komodo dragons are not venomous they have deadly bacteria in their saliva but have no venom glands to speak of. So the count remains two.

There are two kinds of venomous lizards: the Gila Monster and the Mexican Bearded Lizard. Many monitors, such as the Komodo Dragon, may be deadly because of bacteria in their mouth. Bights not treated immediately may get infected and will kill.
