The little striped whiptail (Aspidoscelis inornatus) is a species of lizard found in the southwestern United States (in Arizona, New Mexico and Texas) and in northern Mexico (in Chihuahua, Coahuila, Durango, Zacatecas, San Luis Potosí, and Nuevo León).

It is typically black in color, with yellow or white striping from head to tail, and a light blue underside.

They aren't always striped or blue, sometimes they are brown with darker patches to blend in with the sand or dirt.

Breeding takes place in the late spring, and clutches of 2 to 4 eggs are laid from May to July and hatch approximately six weeks later.

The whiptail species eat crickets and other insects that live in Arizona.
