Abstract

We formally document new noteworthy distributional records for the Oaxaca entity in southern Mexico, including the tree frogs Charadrahyla chaneque, Sarcohyla labeculata. S. hazelae, S. celata & Triprion spinosus. The False Cat Eyed Snake Tantalophis discolor, the Bluntheaded Snake Imantodes gemmistratus, the Coral Snake Micrurus elegans, and the Pit vipers Agkistrodon bilineatus, Cerrophidion petlalcalensis, Ophryacus undulatus, and Porthidum dunni. Some records represent the rediscovery of the species in several decades.
