The northern most Philippine species of flyinglizard was discovered and described by Skip from Batan in the Batanes Islands, a group of islands also known as the Typhoon Islands because of the high winds which hit them first.
Mark and Skip investigate Skip’s theory that the Batan flyinglizards are evolving away from flight because it is hazardous for them to glide in the strong winds which could rip their patagia, smash them into trees or take them out to sea.
