What Wikipedia says

The Jamaican giant galliwasp or sinking galliwasp (Celestus occiduus) is a possibly extinct species of lizard in the Diploglossidae. It was endemic to Jamaica. It was last recorded in mid-19th century. Its population was ravaged and likely exterminated by introduced predators like mongooses.
