Abstract

Colombia hosts the largest richness of species of the genus Atractus and most of those are endemic. This note reports a new locality for the snake Atractus manizalesensis, an endemic species with a short geographic distribution that comprises a few records among two departments of Colombia. This record represents the first in the department of Antioquia and extends the distribution of this species in around 82 km in a straight line.
