That is MY Similis and photo, I don't mind that you used it.
I believe the first Monitor in this thread is a Timorensis, next we saw a Scalaris followed by my Similis.
Take note of the tail differences, on Similis the last half or sometimes more or less is solid black...on Timors the last say 1/4 is striped to the tip.

Here's what is shown in photos on this thread.
First photos = Timor Monitor = V.Timorensis
Second photo = Spotted Tree Monitor = V.Scalaris.
Third photo = New Guinea Spotted Tree Monitor = V.Similis.
