I came up with that name by marrying the words "Champlain" and "amphibian" because at a family summer residence on the NY lake by that name there seems to be world-record-sized swimming salamanders that account for stories of a lake monster. We have our own crummy photograph of one of these critters at dusk consistent with a youtube video by user "mookibone."
As for South American lizards on the loose in my neck of the woods, I've seen tegus, amievas, rainbow lizards, and a whole bunch of stuff.
