Brown, Dalvin. "Robotic lizards may play a role in the future of disaster surveillance, researchers imagine." The Washington Post, 6 April 2021.[1]

Subhead: "Scientists are studying the way lizards move to design robot reptiles to go where people can’t"

See for the superimposition of the cybernetic or robotic upon the reptilian, or their fusion. Cf. and contrast what Thomas P. Dunn and Richard D. Erlich have called "The Ovion/Cylon Alliance": the connections between and among entities robotic and insectoid. Note also the reptilian aspects of H. R. Giger's biomechanics, as in the first two ALIEN films.
