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.

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.

Debido a la fragmentación de esta información encontrada en registros bibliográficos, se tomó como objetivo reunir y actualizar esta información, determinar cuál es la ofidiofauna del Chaco y de sus subregiones, y elaborar mapas de registros de cada una de las especies. Además se analizó la diversidad funcional, taxonómica y filogenética entre las subregiones chaqueñas, bajo la hipótesis de que las características ambientales condicionan la diversidad funcional, -

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. -
