1874 Dipsas rhinopoma Blanford, Descriptions of new Reptilia and Amphibia from Persia and Baluchistán. Annals and Magazine of Natural History, ser. 4, 14:31–35.
SYNTYPES.— BMNH 1946.1.5. 10 and ZSI 3500 , from “in Carmania ” [Kerman, Iran], according to Blanford (1876) collected at Karmán at 5000 ft elevation. Blanford , in his original description (Blanford 1874), gave morphological characters, but later (Blanford 1876:421) he explicitely mentions two specimens with identical pholidosis and locality as given in the original description. Therefore, the type series includes two syntypes rather than the ZSI specimen, which has been cited as the holotype by several authors (e.g., Sclater 1891:48; Das et al. 1998:148) .
SYNONYMS.— Dipsadomorphus Jollyi Wall, 1914 from “ Kacha Thana , Baluchistan ” (holotype not located).
LOCALITIES.— Band-e-Kadjaki, Kadjaku [Kandahar Prov., 1050 m] ( ZMK 2736 View Materials ) [see pl. 13, fig. 1 for distribution] .
