Abstract
Background Three new species were recently described from the Calotesmystaceus Duméril & Bibron, 1837 complex. Of the three new species, C.vindumbarbatus Wagner, Ihlow, Hartmann, Flecks, Schmitz & Böhme, 2021 was known only from northern Myanmar. New information Seven specimens of lizard were collected from Tongbiguan Nature Reserve, western Yunnan, China. Phylogenetically, these specimens clustered with the type specimens of Calotesvindumbarbatus from Myanmar with strong support and showed inappreciable genetic divergence from the type specimens of C.vindumbarbatus. We report the first country record of C.vindumbarbatus from China. In addition, a supplementary description, based on the newly-collected specimens and revised diagnosis of this species, was provided.

Liu S, Rao D. A new species of the genus Acanthosaura from Yunnan, China (Squamata, Agamidae). Zookeys 2019; 888:105-132. [PMID: 31754322 PMCID: PMC6861339 DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.888.38491] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2019] [Accepted: 10/21/2019] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
A new species of Acanthosaura from Yunnan, China is described based on unique morphometric and meristic external characters and a very distinctive color pattern. The fourteenth species recorded of this genus, Acanthosauratongbiguanensissp. nov., was previously considered A.lepidogaster although it more closely resembles A.crucigera. It can be separated from all other species of the genus by having different numbers of subdigital lamellae on the fourth finger and toe, and a different shape of the black eye patch. The new species differs genetically from investigated congeners by percentage distance of 14.46% to 23.27% (cytochrome b gene).
