This species was previoulsy known from the states of Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Paraná, Santa Catarina, and We Rio present Grande the do firstSul. Therecord present of record represent an extension of nearly 200 km to the North from the nearest published record for the species. Urostrophus is a leiosaurid lizard genus represented Santos et al. 2009). The record by Ruschi (1966) was not by only two species: U. gallardoi Etheridge and Williams, mentioned by Etheridge and Williams (1991) in their 1991 and U. vautieri Duméril and Bribon, 1837 (Etheridge review of the genus. The record was made in a compilation and Williams 1991). Urostrophus gallardoi was described of the reptile species known to occur in Espírito Santo in 1991 in the occasion of the revision of the genus at the time (Ruschi 1966). Although we cannot ignore (Etheridge and Williams 1991) and is currently known U. vautieri in from northwest Argentina and southern Bolivia (Tedesco Espírito Santo we must mention that Ruschi’s list is not et al. 1992; Torres 1996). Urostrophus vautieri (Figure verythat Ruschireliable.

The type locality was later restricted to Rio de and several of them doubtfully occur in the region. Similar Janeiro by Duméril and Duméril (1851). According to inconsistencies have been reported to other species lists Etheridge and Williams (1991), the species is known from compiled by Augusto Ruschi (e.g. the states of Rio Grande do Sul, Paraná, Santa Catarina, Pacheco and Bauer 2001). São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and southern Minas Gerais, in birds - Simon 2000; Brazil (Figure 2). Santos et al. (2009) reviewed the species distribution in Brazil and provided additional records in Minas Gerais and Rio de Janeiro, extending the known geographical distribution of U. vautieri in those states. Santos et al. (2009) also referenced a record by Ruschi (1966) to the state of Espírito Santo but did not include the record in their map of distribution (see Figure 1 in Figure 2.

Abstract: A comprehensive and up to date summary of the literature on the helminth parasites of lizards and amphisbaenians from South America is herein presented. One-hundred eighteen lizard species from twelve countries were reported in the literature harboring a total of 155 helminth species, being none acanthocephalans, 15 cestodes, 20 trematodes and 111 nematodes. Of these, one record was from Chile and French Guiana, three from Colombia, three from Uruguay, eight from Bolivia, nine from Surinam, 13 from Paraguay, 12 from Venezuela, 27 from Ecuador, 17 from Argentina, 39 from Peru and 103 from Brazil. The present list provides host, geographical distribution (with the respective biome, when possible), site of infection and references from the parasites. A systematic parasite-host list is also provided. Key words: Cestoda, Nematoda, Trematoda, Squamata, neotropical. INTRODUCTION The present checklist summarizes the diversity of helminths from lizards and amphisbaenians Parasitological studies on helminths that of South America, providing a host-parasite list infect squamates (particularly lizards) in South with localities and biomes. America had recent increased in the past few years, with many new records of hosts and/or STUDIED REGIONS localities and description of several new species (1-3).

  • Xenosaurus Tzacualtipantecus. the Zacualtipán Knob-Scaled Lizard Is Endemic to the Sierra Madre Oriental of Eastern Mexico
    Xenosaurus tzacualtipantecus. The Zacualtipán knob-scaled lizard is endemic to the Sierra Madre Oriental of eastern Mexico. This medium-large lizard (female holotype measures 188 mm in total length) is known only from the vicinity of the type locality in eastern Hidalgo, at an elevation of 1,900 m in pine-oak forest, and a nearby locality at 2,000 m in northern Veracruz (Woolrich- Piña and Smith 2012). Xenosaurus tzacualtipantecus is thought to belong to the northern clade of the genus, which also contains X. newmanorum and X. platyceps (Bhullar 2011). As with its congeners, X. tzacualtipantecus is an inhabitant of crevices in limestone rocks. This species consumes beetles and lepidopteran larvae and gives birth to living young. The habitat of this lizard in the vicinity of the type locality is being deforested, and people in nearby towns have created an open garbage dump in this area. We determined its EVS as 17, in the middle of the high vulnerability category (see text for explanation), and its status by the IUCN and SEMAR- NAT presently are undetermined. This newly described endemic species is one of nine known species in the monogeneric family Xenosauridae, which is endemic to northern Mesoamerica (Mexico from Tamaulipas to Chiapas and into the montane portions of Alta Verapaz, Guatemala). All but one of these nine species is endemic to Mexico.

  • Anolis Planiceps (Leaf Anole)
    UWI The Online Guide to the Animals of Trinidad and Tobago Diversity Anolis planiceps (Leaf Anole) Family: Polychrotidae (Anoles and Tree Lizards) Order: Squamata (Lizards and Snakes) Class: Reptilia (Reptiles) Fig. 1. Leaf anole, Anolis planiceps. [http://www.trinidad-tobagoherps.org/Images/planiceps.jpg, downloaded 24 October 2016] TRAITS. Formerly known as Anolis chrysolepis or Norops chrysolepis, the leaf anole measures up to 76mm from snout to vent according (D'Angiolella et al., 2011). The pads of their feet are specialised to help them rest on leaves and trunks (Fig. 1). They have a spotted red patch of skin below theirs jaws, which is extendable, called the dewlap (Fig. 2). The region along the lizard's spine has larger scales than the adjacent areas with those located in the mid-dorsal area being the largest. Along their heads are two prominent ridges as well as ridged (keeled) scales located above the eyes (Fig. 3). The dorsal scales of the leaf anole are several shades of brown while the ventral scales are a pale cream colour; patterns vary greatly within populations (Fig. 4) (Vanzolini and Williams, 1970). Male anoles have longer tails and the females have wider bodies and smaller dewlaps than males (Vitt and Zani, 2011). DISTRIBUTION. Leaf anoles may be found in a relatively wide range from east Venezuela to Guyana, Suriname, Columbia, Trinidad and Brazil (Fig. 5). They are found throughout the island of Trinidad primarily in terrestrial, highly forested areas (D'Angiolella et al, 2011).

No subspecies are currently recognized.[6] Description A. squamigera grows to an average total length (body + tail) of 46 to 60 cm (about 18 to 24 inches), with a maximum total length that sometimes exceeds 78 cm (about 31 inches). Females are usually larger than males.[2] Scientific Classification The head is broad and flat, distinct from the neck. The mouth has a very large gape. The head is thickly covered with keeled, imbricate scales. Kingdom: Anamalia The rostral scale is not visible from above. A very small scale just above Phylum: Cordata the rostral is flanked by very large scales on either side. The nostrils are Class: Reptilia lateral. The eye and the nasal are separated by 2 scales. Across the top of Order: Squamata the head, there are 7 to 9 interorbital scales. There are 10 to 18 circumorbital scales. There are 2 (rarely 1 or more than 2) rows of Suborder: Serpentes scales that separate the eyes from the labials. There are 9 to Family: viperidae 12 supralabials and 9 to 12 sublabials. Of the latter, the anterior 2 or 3 Genus: Atheris touch the chin shields, of which there is only one small pair. The gular [2] Subgenus: A. squamigera scales are keeled.
