The ornate monitor (Varanus niloticus ornatus) is a monitor lizard that is native to West and Middle Africa. Comprehensive molecular analyses of the group have demonstrated that animals previously assigned to "Varanus ornatus" do not constitute a valid taxon and are actually polymorphisms of two different species; Varanus stellatus (west African Nile monitor) and Varanus niloticus (Nile monitor). Consequently, Varanus ornatus is considered a synonym of Varanus niloticus and "ornate monitor" is an informal term for forest forms of either species (V. niloticus or V. stellatus).Until 1997, the ornate monitor was considered a subspecies of the Nile monitor. It was subsequently described as a separate species on the basis of reduced number of ocelli rows on the body, a light coloured tongue and

It was subsequently described as a separate species on the basis of reduced number of ocelli rows on the body, a light coloured tongue and a more massive build. More recent work based on a large sample size using mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequences indicates that Varanus ornatus is not a valid species and that animals with the diagnostic appearance belong either of two sister species of Nile monitor. Animals described as ornate monitor lizards are native to closed canopy forests in West and Middle Africa. (en)

Fino al 1997, il varano ornato era considerato una sottospecie del varano del Nilo. Successivamente è stata descritta come una specie separata sulla base di un numero ridotto di file di macchie a ocelli lungo il corpo, una lingua di colore chiaro e una corporatura più massiccia. Uno studio più recente basato su un esemplare di grandi dimensioni che utilizza sequenze di DNA mitocondriale e nucleare indica che il Varanus ornatus non è una specie valida e che gli animali con aspetto diagnostico appartengono a due specie sorella del varano del Nilo. Gli animali descritti come varani ornati sono nativi delle foreste chiuse a baldacchino dell'Africa occidentale e centrale. (it)
