Xenosaurus Phalaroanthereon Nieto-Montes De Oca, Campbell, and Flores-Villela, 2001
Xenosaurus phalaroanthereon Nieto-Montes de Oca, Campbell, and Flores-Villela, 2001. This knob-scaled lizard is endemic to the state of Oaxaca, where it occurs in the Montañas y Valles del Centro and Sierra Madre del Sur physiographic provinces at elevations from 1,670 (García- Padilla and Mata-Silva, 2014) to 2,185 m. Individuals of this live-bearing species occupy the interior of crevices, usually singly, in small granite boulders located on hillsides covered with oak and pine-oak forest. Populations persist, however, at sites converted to agricultural use, such as cornfields (Lemos-Espinal and Smith, 2005). Its EVS is calculated as 16, which places it in the middle portion of the high vulnerability category (Wilson et al., 2013a), and its IUCN status is Data Deficient. This species is one of 10 members of the monogeneric family Xenosauridae, which is endemic to Mesoamerica. All but one of the species is endemic to Mexico.

Pseudoeurycea Naucampatepetl. the Cofre De Perote Salamander Is Endemic to the Sierra Madre Oriental of Eastern Mexico. This
Pseudoeurycea naucampatepetl. The Cofre de Perote salamander is endemic to the Sierra Madre Oriental of eastern Mexico. This relatively large salamander (reported to attain a total length of 150 mm) is recorded only from, “a narrow ridge extending east from Cofre de Perote and terminating [on] a small peak (Cerro Volcancillo) at the type locality,” in central Veracruz, at elevations from 2,500 to 3,000 m (Amphibian Species of the World website). Pseudoeurycea naucampatepetl has been assigned to the P. bellii complex of the P. bellii group (Raffaëlli 2007) and is considered most closely related to P. gigantea, a species endemic to the La specimens and has not been seen for 20 years, despite thorough surveys in 2003 and 2004 (EDGE; www.edgeofexistence.org), and thus it might be extinct. The habitat at the type locality (pine-oak forest with abundant bunch grass) lies within Lower Montane Wet Forest (Wilson and Johnson 2010; IUCN Red List website [accessed 21 April 2013]). The known specimens were “found beneath the surface of roadside banks” (www.edgeofexistence.org) along the road to Las Lajas Microwave Station, 15 kilometers (by road) south of Highway 140 from Las Vigas, Veracruz (Amphibian Species of the World website). This species is terrestrial and presumed to reproduce by direct development. Pseudoeurycea naucampatepetl is placed as number 89 in the top 100 Evolutionarily Distinct and Globally Endangered amphib- ians (EDGE; www.edgeofexistence.org). We calculated this animal’s EVS as 17, which is in the middle of the high vulnerability category (see text for explanation), and its IUCN status has been assessed as Critically Endangered. -

The Tadpole of Megastomatohyla Pellita (Duellman, 1968) (Amphibia: Anura: Hylidae)
The south-facing slopes of the Sierra Madre del Sur in Oaxaca, Mexico, remain mostly covered with pristine broad-leaf forest. This image shows the stream where adults and tadpoles of the hylid frog Megastomatohyla pellita were collected. Tadpoles were captured with a net during the day, whereas adults were encountered on rocks in the streambed at night. The locality is about 25 km north of the village of San Gabriel Mixtepec.

Crotalus Tancitarensis. the Tancítaro Cross-Banded Mountain Rattlesnake
Crotalus tancitarensis. The Tancítaro cross-banded mountain rattlesnake is a small species (maximum recorded total length = 434 mm) known only from the upper elevations (3,220–3,225 m) of Cerro Tancítaro, the highest mountain in Michoacán, Mexico, where it inhabits pine-fir forest (Alvarado and Campbell 2004; Alvarado et al. 2007). Cerro Tancítaro lies in the western portion of the Transverse Volcanic Axis, which extends across Mexico from Jalisco to central Veracruz near the 20°N latitude. Its entire range is located within Parque Nacional Pico de Tancítaro (Campbell 2007), an area under threat from manmade fires, logging, avocado culture, and cattle raising. This attractive rattlesnake was described in 2004 by the senior author and Jonathan A. Campbell, and placed in the Crotalus intermedius group of Mexican montane rattlesnakes by Bryson et al. (2011). We calculated its EVS as 19, which is near the upper end of the high vulnerability category (see text for explanation), its IUCN status has been reported as Data Deficient (Campbell 2007), and this species is not listed by SEMARNAT. More information on the natural history and distribution of this species is available, however, which affects its conservation status (especially its IUCN status; Alvarado-Díaz et al. 2007). We consider C. tancitarensis one of the pre-eminent flagship reptile species for the state of Michoacán, and for Mexico in general. Photo by Javier Alvarado-Díaz. Amphib.
