A New Species of Gecko (Sphaerodactylus) from Central Cuba
Journalof Herpetology,Vol. 27, No. 3, pp. 300-306, 1993 Copyright 1993 Society for the Study of Amphibians and Reptiles A New Species of Gecko (Sphaerodactylus) from Central Cuba S. BLAIR HEDGES' AND ORLANDO H. GARRIDO2 'Departmentof Biology,208 MuellerLab, Pennsylvania State University, UniversityPark, Pennsylvania 16802, USA, and 2MuseoNacional de HistoriaNatural, Capitolio Nacional, La Habana, Cuba ABSTRACT.-A new species of gecko, Sphaerodactylusrichardi, is described from near Playa Giron in southern MatanzasProvince, Cuba. It is a member of the scabergroup, and is distinguished by its dorsal body pattern of 5-6 bold crossbandsand large, keeled dorsal scales. The taxonomic status of S. storeyae is re-evaluated.The scaber group now includes four species, all from central Cuba, Isla de Juventud, and the Archipielago de los Canarreos:S. oliveri, S. richardi,S. scaber, and S. storeyae. RESUMEN.- Se describe una nueva especie de salamanquita,Sphaerodactylus richardi, que habita en la region cerca de Playa Gir6n, Matanzas,Cuba. Se distingue del resto de las especies del Grupo scaber por los patrones de 5-6 bandas transversalesy escamas dorsales grande y aquilladas. El estado taxonomico de S. storeyae se reevaluado.El grupo scaber inclue quatro especies, todo de Cuba central, Isla de Juventud, y el Archipielago de los Canarreos:S. oliveri, S. richardi,S. scaber, and S. storeyae.

Ctenosaura Defensor (Cope, 1866)
Ctenosaura defensor (Cope, 1866). The Yucatecan Spiny-tailed Iguana, a regional endemic in the Mexican Yucatan Peninsula, is distributed in the Tabascan Plains and Marshes, Karstic Hills and Plains of Campeche, and Yucatecan Karstic Plains regions in the states of Campeche, Quintana Roo, and Yucatán (Lee, 1996; Calderón-Mandujano and Mora-Tembre, 2004), at elevations from near “sea level to 100 m” (Köhler, 2008). In the original description by Cope (1866), the type locality was given as “Yucatán,” but Smith and Taylor (1950: 352) restricted it to “Chichén Itzá, Yucatán, Mexico.” This lizard has been reported to live on trees with hollow limbs, into which they retreat when approached (Lee, 1996), and individuals also can be found in holes in limestone rocks (Köhler, 2002). Lee (1996: 204) indicated that this species lives “mainly in the xeric thorn forests of the northwestern portion of the Yucatán Peninsula, although they are also found in the tropical evergreen forests of northern Campeche.” This colorful individual was found in low thorn forest 5 km N of Sinanché, in the municipality of Sinanché, in northern coastal Yucatán. Wilson et al. (2013a) determined its EVS as 15, placing it in the lower portion of the high vulnerability category. Its conservation status has been assessed as Vulnerable by the IUCN, and as endangered (P) by SEMARNAT. ' © Javier A.

Through an extensive review of information on Cuban herpetofauna, including protected area management plans, we present the first comprehensive inventory of introduced amphibians and reptiles in the Cuban archipelago. We classify species as Invasive, Established Non-invasive, Not Established, and Transported. We document the arrival of 26 species, five amphibians and 21 reptiles, in more than 35 different introduction events. Of the 26 species, we identify 11 species (42.3%), one amphibian and 10 reptiles, as established, with nine of them being invasive: Lithobates catesbeianus, Caiman crocodilus, Hemidactylus mabouia, H. angulatus, H. frenatus, Gonatodes albogularis, Sphaerodactylus argus, Gymnophthalmus underwoodi, and Indotyphlops braminus. We present the introduced range of each of the 26 species in the Cuban archipelago as well as the other Caribbean islands and document historical records, the population sources, dispersal pathways, introduction events, current status of distribution, and impacts. -
