NEW RECORDS OF AMPHIBIANS AND REPTILES FOR CENTRAL MEXICO

Abstract

We formally document new state records for four states of north-central Mexico, among which are the Alligator lizard Gerrhonotus infernalis for Jalisco, the Blind snake Virgotyphlops braminus for San Luis Potosí, as well as the Mexican tree frog Agalychnis dacnicolor for Zacatecas. Likewise, we report the extensions of the distribution range of the Western Boa Boa sigma and the Long-tailed Lizard Sceloporus utiformis for the municipality of Jalpa; the Blind snake Virgotyphlops braminus and the Collared lizard Crotaphytus collaris for the municipality of Loreto, both municipalities belonging to the state of Zacatecas.
