Yup. Handsome one too!
I lived near the White Sands for six years as a kid and enjoyed the white lizards & horned toads that lived there. I'm sure I saw other white creatures there as well, but I was into reptiles at the time, so those are the ones I recall. I would expect equally fascinating color adaptations among insect species there.
