Herpetological Information Service No Type Descriptions and Type Publications OF HoBART M. Smith, 1933 through June 1999 Ernest A. Liner Houma, Louisiana smithsonian herpetological information service no. 127 2000 SMITHSONIAN HERPETOLOGICAL INFORMATION SERVICE The SHIS series publishes and distributes translations, bibliographies, indices, and similar items judged useful to individuals interested in the biology of amphibians and reptiles, but unlikely to be published in the normal technical journals. Single copies are distributed free to interested individuals. Libraries, herpetological associations, and research laboratories are invited to exchange their publications with the Division of Amphibians and Reptiles. We wish to encourage individuals to share their bibliographies, translations, etc. with other herpetologists through the SHIS series. If you have such items please contact George Zug for instructions on preparation and submission. Contributors receive 50 free copies. Please address all requests for copies and inquiries to George Zug, Division of Amphibians and Reptiles, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington DC 20560 USA. Please include a self-addressed mailing label with requests. Introduction Hobart M. Smith is one of herpetology's most prolific autiiors. As of 30 June 1999, he authored or co-authored 1367 publications covering a range of scholarly and popular papers dealing with such diverse subjects as taxonomy, life history, geographical distribution, checklists, nomenclatural problems, bibliographies, herpetological coins, anatomy, comparative anatomy textbooks, pet books, book reviews, abstracts, encyclopedia entries, prefaces and forwords as well as updating volumes being repnnted. The checklists of the herpetofauna of Mexico authored with Dr. Edward H. Taylor are legendary as is the Synopsis of the Herpetofalhva of Mexico coauthored with his late wife, Rozella B. Smith. As of 30 June 1999, he has authored or co-authored the description of 294 new taxa of amphibians and reptiles. His first descnption of a new species appeared in 1933 with the description of Anolis megapholidotus (Smith, 1933), still valid. Chiszar and R. Smith (1982) published a list of his publications for 1931-1980, a penod of fifty years. That bibliography included only a list of all new taxa described by Smith and the publication in which the descriptions appeared. It was an enormous help in assembling the present list. The present list includes the authors and year the names appeared, as well as the present nomenclatural status of the taxon. The Chiszar and R. Smith (1982) list gives Bolitoglossa cephalica rubrimembris incorrectly as B. c. rubriventris (p. 73). Acris gryilus paludicola, Sceloporus adleri, and Sceloporus ochotemae were inadvertently excluded, and Conophis lineatus similis Bocourt, 1886 incorrect included. The name Crotalus gloydi lautus first appeared in Smith and Laufe (1945) as a nomen nudum. It was formally described in Smith (1946). Sixty-six individuals have coauthored taxonomic descriptions with H. M. Smith, many more than once. John Gillespie coauthored the descnption of Tretanorhinus nigroleteus mertensi but not the paper. The coauthors of new taxa follow alphabetically: Ronald Altig, Ticul Alvarez, Miguel Alvarez del Toro, John S. Applegarth, Rudolph G. Amdt, David L. Auth, Edwin L. Bell, Ronald A. Brandon, Edmund D. Brodie, Jr., Bryce C. Brown, Carlos B. Bumzahem, W. Leslie Burger, F. William Burley, David Chiszar, Pete S. Chrapliwy, Donald M. Darling, Marlene M. Dasman, William B. Davis, I.

Werler and Kenneth L. Williams. In addition to many coauthors, he has published his descriptions in many scientific journals, i.e., 31 journals and three books. They are: American Museum Novitates; Anales del Instituto de Biologia Mexico; Breviora; Bulletin of the Maryland Herpetological Society; Bulletin of the United States National Museum; Copeia; Field and Laboratory; Field Museum of Natural History, Zoological Series; Great Basin Naturalist; Herpetologica; Journal of Herpetology; Journal of the Linnaean Society of London; Journal of the Ohio Herpetological Society; Journal of the Tennessee Academy of Sciences; Journal of the Washington Academy of Sciences; Natural History Miscellanea; Occasional Papers Museum of Zoology University of Michigan; Papeis Avulsos Departamento Zoologia de Sao Paulo (Brasil); Proceedings of the Biological Society of Washington Proceedings of the New England Zoological Club; Proceeding of the Rochester Academy of Sciences; Proceedings of the United States National Museum; Smithsoniam Miscellaneous Collections; The Southwestern Naturalist; The Texas Journal of Science; The University of Kansas Science Bulletin; The Wasmann Journal of Biology; Transactions of the Illinois Academy of Sciences; Transactions of the Kansas Academy of Sciences; Ward's Natural Science Bulletin; Zoologica. The books are Smith and Smith (1972), Smith and Brodie, 1982, and Smith and Chiszar (1996). This list covers from 1933 thru 30 June 1999, a penod of 66 years.

    Other Contributions NATURE NOTES Amphibia: Caudata Ambystoma ordinarium. Predation by a Black-necked Gartersnake (Thamnophis cyrtopsis). The Michoacán Stream Salamander (Ambystoma ordinarium) is a facultatively paedomorphic ambystomatid species. Paedomorphic adults and larvae are found in montane streams, while metamorphic adults are terrestrial, remaining near natal streams (Ruiz-Martínez et al., 2014). Streams inhabited by this species are immersed in pine, pine-oak, and fir for- ests in the central part of the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt (Luna-Vega et al., 2007). All known localities where A. ordinarium has been recorded are situated between the vicinity of Lake Patzcuaro in the north-central portion of the state of Michoacan and Tianguistenco in the western part of the state of México (Ruiz-Martínez et al., 2014). This species is considered Endangered by the IUCN (IUCN, 2015), is protected by the government of Mexico, under the category Pr (special protection) (AmphibiaWeb; accessed 1April 2016), and Wilson et al. (2013) scored it at the upper end of the medium vulnerability level. Data available on the life history and biology of A. ordinarium is restricted to the species description (Taylor, 1940), distribution (Shaffer, 1984; Anderson and Worthington, 1971), diet composition (Alvarado-Díaz et al., 2002), phylogeny (Weisrock et al., 2006) and the effect of habitat quality on diet diversity (Ruiz-Martínez et al., 2014). We did not find predation records on this species in the literature, and in this note we present information on a predation attack on an adult neotenic A. ordinarium by a Thamnophis cyrtopsis. On 13 July 2010 at 1300 h, while conducting an ecological study of A.

  • 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.

Both series were founded by Dr. Bryant Walker, Mr. Bradshaw H. Swales, and Dr. W. W. Newcomb. The Occasional Papers, publication of which was begun in 1913, serve as a medium for original studies bascd principally upon the collections in the Museum. Thcy are issued separately. When a sufficient number of pages has been printed to make a volume, a title page, table of contents, and an index are supplied to libraries and indi- viduals on the mailing list for the series. The Miscellaneous Publications, which include papers on field and museum techniques, monographic studies, and other contributions not within the scope of the Occasional Papers, are published separtely. It is not intended that they be grouped into volumes. Each number has a title page and, when necessary, a table of contents. A complete list of publications on Birds, Fishes, Insects, Mammals, Mollusks, and Reptiles and Amphibians is available. Address inquiries to the Director, Museum of Zoology, Ann Arbor, Michigan.

  • Multi-National Conservation of Alligator Lizards
    MULTI-NATIONAL CONSERVATION OF ALLIGATOR LIZARDS: APPLIED SOCIOECOLOGICAL LESSONS FROM A FLAGSHIP GROUP by ADAM G. CLAUSE (Under the Direction of John Maerz) ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is defined by unprecedented human influence on the biosphere. Integrative conservation recognizes this inextricable coupling of human and natural systems, and mobilizes multiple epistemologies to seek equitable, enduring solutions to complex socioecological issues. Although a central motivation of global conservation practice is to protect at-risk species, such organisms may be the subject of competing social perspectives that can impede robust interventions. Furthermore, imperiled species are often chronically understudied, which prevents the immediate application of data-driven quantitative modeling approaches in conservation decision making. Instead, real-world management goals are regularly prioritized on the basis of expert opinion. Here, I explore how an organismal natural history perspective, when grounded in a critique of established human judgements, can help resolve socioecological conflicts and contextualize perceived threats related to threatened species conservation and policy development. To achieve this, I leverage a multi-national system anchored by a diverse, enigmatic, and often endangered New World clade: alligator lizards. Using a threat analysis and status assessment, I show that one recent petition to list a California alligator lizard, Elgaria panamintina, under the US Endangered Species Act often contradicts the best available science.

    THE NORTH AMERICAN REPTILES AND BATRACHIANS. A LIST OF THE SPECIES OCCURRING NORTH OF THE ISTHMUS OF TEHUANTEPEC, WITH REFERENCES. BY SAMUEL GARMAN. The following list is presented in the shape in which it has proved most useful in my own work. As in other pub- lications, I have placed the date immediately after the au- thority, as one naturally thinks it. In order accurately to determine species, comparison should be made with the original description rather than with the opinion of a sub- sequent writer ; for this reason reference is made to the discoverer and not to one in whose opinion the species belonofs to a o^enus some other than that in which it was originally placed. Consequently, the references are under names unaffected by frequent changes from one genus to another. Heretofore, the faunal limit for North America has been patriotically placed at the Mexican boundary. The distribution of the reptiles and Batrachians proves this limit to be unscientific, and shows the nearest approach to a separation between the faunae of the Americas, North and South, at the southern extremity of the tableland of Mexico. Attempt is made in this list to include all the species known to occur north of that point. When several localities for a species are given, they are chosen to indicate the extent of its range as nearly as possible. With a slight modification, the binomial system is fol- lowed. For various reasons, as will be seen below, the tri- (3) 4 garman's list op or polynomiiils affected by different authors, can hardly be considered improvements.

  • Changes to CITES Species Listings
    NOTICE TO THE WILDLIFE IMPORT/EXPORT COMMUNITY December 21, 2016 Subject: Changes to CITES Species Listings Background: Party countries of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) meet approximately every two years for a Conference of the Parties. During these meetings, countries review and vote on amendments to the listings of protected species in CITES Appendix I and Appendix II. Such amendments become effective 90 days after the last day of the meeting unless Party countries agree to delay implementation. The most recent Conference of the Parties (CoP 17) was held in Johannesburg, South Africa, September 24 – October 4, 2016. Action: Except as noted below, the amendments to CITES Appendices I and II that were adopted at CoP 17, will be effective on January 2, 2017. Any specimens of these species imported into, or exported from, the United States on or after January 2, 2017 will require CITES documentation as specified under the amended listings. The import, export, or re-export of shipments of these species that are accompanied by CITES documents reflecting a pre-January 2 listing status or that lack CITES documents because no listing was previously in effect must be completed by midnight (local time at the point of import/export) on January 1, 2017. Importers and exporters can find the official revised CITES appendices on the CITES website. Species Added to Appendix I . Abronia anzuetoi (Alligator lizard) . Abronia campbelli (Alligator lizard) . Abronia fimbriata (Alligator lizard) . Abronia frosti (Alligator lizard) . Abronia meledona (Alligator lizard) . Cnemaspis psychedelica (Psychedelic rock gecko) .
