  • Fossil Amphibians and Reptiles from the Neogene Locality of Maramena (Greece), the Most Diverse European Herpetofauna at the Miocene/Pliocene Transition Boundary
    Palaeontologia Electronica palaeo-electronica.org Fossil amphibians and reptiles from the Neogene locality of Maramena (Greece), the most diverse European herpetofauna at the Miocene/Pliocene transition boundary Georgios L. Georgalis, Andrea Villa, Martin Ivanov, Davit Vasilyan, and Massimo Delfino ABSTRACT We herein describe the fossil amphibians and reptiles from the Neogene (latest Miocene or earliest Pliocene; MN 13/14) locality of Maramena, in northern Greece. The herpetofauna is shown to be extremely diverse, comprising at least 30 different taxa. Amphibians include at least six urodelan (Cryptobranchidae indet., Salamandrina sp., Lissotriton sp. [Lissotriton vulgaris group], Lissotriton sp., Ommatotriton sp., and Sala- mandra sp.), and three anuran taxa (Latonia sp., Hyla sp., and Pelophylax sp.). Rep- tiles are much more speciose, being represented by two turtle (the geoemydid Mauremys aristotelica and a probable indeterminate testudinid), at least nine lizard (Agaminae indet., Lacertidae indet., ?Lacertidae indet., aff. Palaeocordylus sp., ?Scin- cidae indet., Anguis sp., five morphotypes of Ophisaurus, Pseudopus sp., and at least one species of Varanus), and 10 snake taxa (Scolecophidia indet., Periergophis micros gen. et sp. nov., Paraxenophis spanios gen. et sp. nov., Hierophis cf. hungaricus, another distinct “colubrine” morphotype, Natrix aff. rudabanyaensis, and another dis- tinct species of Natrix, Naja sp., cf. Micrurus sp., and a member of the “Oriental Vipers” complex). The autapomorphic features and bizarre vertebral morphology of Perier- gophis micros gen. et sp. nov. and Paraxenophis spanios gen. et sp. nov. render them readily distinguishable among fossil and extant snakes. Cryptobranchids, several of the amphibian genera, scincids, Anguis, Pseudopus, and Micrurus represent totally new fossil occurrences, not only for the Greek area, but for the whole southeastern Europe.

Somma Department of- Zoology University of Florida Gainesville, FL 32611 Amphisbaenids, or worm lizards, are a small enigmatic suborder of reptiles (containing 4 families; ca. 140 species) within the order Squamata, which include~ the more speciose lizards and snakes (Gans 1986). The name amphisbaenia is derived from the mythical Amphisbaena (Topsell 1608; Aldrovandi 1640), a two-headed beast (one head at each end), whose fantastical description may have been based, in part, upon actual observations of living worm lizards (Druce 1910). While most are limbless and worm-like in appearance, members of the family Bipedidae (containing the single genus Sipes) have two forelimbs located close to the head. This trait, and the lack of well-developed eyes, makes them look like two-legged worms.

Cadea palirostrata,' sp. nov. Type, No. 2717, American Museum of Natural History, from San Pedro, Isle of Pines, Cuba, 1911, Charles S. Mead. Paratypes, Nos. 2718 and 2719, American Museum of Natural History. No. 2718 has been deposited at the United States National Museum, Washington, D. C. Description of the Type.- Premaxillary teeth, 7; maxillaries, 5-5; mandibulars, 8-8. Mouth inferior, muzzle extending beyond it a distance equal to the length of the nasal. Muzzle long and pointed. Head compressed with spadelike ridge extending dorsally from occipitals forward, and ventrally the length of the mental. Rostral large, compressed and extending in a conspicuously convex band forward and upward over the end of the muzzle, and backward to an angular suture with the praefrontal - thus adding to the adaptability of the head for digging. Praefrontal relatively large, its width little less than its length, compressed and folded over the dorsal ridge of the muzzle, indented anteriorly by the entrance of the rostral, and posteriorly by the two frontals. The latter equal in length to the praefrontal, widest in the middle. Frontals followed by a pair of subquadrilateral occipitals. Eye visible under the anterior angle of the ocular. Nostril pierced in the middle of the anterior end of the nasal. Supraocular very elongate, forming sutures with nasal, prefrontal and frontals, second labial, ocular and parietals. Three upper labials subequal, although of greatly varying shape; first slightly smallest, second slightly largest.

Collection of 888 specimens and study of additibnal material from various museums resulted in the partition of L. cubensis: into two species, each with four subspecies. L. cubensis is now kn6wn from Cziba and the Isla de Pinos, the Dbce Leguas keys, and the Archi- piblago de los Canarreos, whereas the new species occurs in western Cuba and the Isla de Pinos.

A taxonomic framework for typhlopid snakes from the Caribbean and other regions (Reptilia, Squamata). Caribbean Herpetology 49:1–61. Abstract The evolutionary history and taxonomy of worm-like snakes (scolecophidians) continues to be refined as new molec- ular data are gathered and analyzed. Here we present additional evidence on the phylogeny of these snakes, from morphological data and 489 new DNA sequences, and propose a new taxonomic framework for the family Typhlopi- dae. Of 257 named species of typhlopid snakes, 92 are now placed in molecular phylogenies along with 60 addition- al species yet to be described. Afrotyphlopinae subfam. nov. is distributed almost exclusively in sub-Saharan Africa and contains three genera: Afrotyphlops, Letheobia, and Rhinotyphlops. Asiatyphlopinae subfam. nov. is distributed in Asia, Australasia, and islands of the western and southern Pacific, and includes ten genera:Acutotyphlops, Anilios, Asiatyphlops gen.
