Lizards from Spanish Pyrenees (1 Viewer)

Hi,

I found photos of some Lizards I took in July 2020. Maybe you can help me with the identification. As I was hiking the GR11 I only had my smartphone's camera so not the best quality.

First one was taken at a campsite in valle de Bujarelo (west of Parque Nation de Ordesa). I think this is a Common Wall Lizard. Is this correct?


This photo was taken east of the Parque Nation de Ordesa shortly after passing the Refugio Biadós somewhere between 1700m and 2000m. The spots on the back of the second Lizard one make me think it might be something different than Common Wall maybe Pyrenean Rock Lizard? As far as I know the range would fit Pyrenean Rock, Common Wall and Catalonian Wall Lizard


The last photo is from the same location Lizard looks as the second. The Lizard looks a bit greenish. Any idea which species?



Thank you!

After doing some more online research I tend to think that second and third photos both show Catalonian Wall Lizard (Podarcis liolepis). But I am still not certain that this is the right ID

Photos 2 & 3 seem to be Iberolacerta monticola (by altitude and distribution). For sure no liolepis so high up.
Photo 1 seems to be muralis

Thanks. As I said I wasn‘t sure about photos 2 and 3. Altitude is probably a good indicator
