1874 Eremias fasciata Blanford, Descriptions of new Reptilia and Amphibia from Persia and Baluchistan. Annals and Magzine of Natural History, ser. 4, 14:31–35.

LECTOTYPE.— ZMB 9329 View Materials (designated by Szczerbak 1974), from “Karman” [= Kerman], Iran.

LOCALITIES.— 56 km S and 10 km E of Darweshan (CAS 120397); 16 km NW Delaram (CAS 120400–04); 35 mi downstream from Girishk, Dasht-i-Margo Area, Chah-i-Angir (CAS 84684– 88); 64 km W Kandahar (CAS 120398–99); Pirzada (ZMUC R-4594); Urgun [Paktia Prov., 2500 m] (ZFMK 8553) [see pl. 8, fig. 3 for distribution].

REMARKS.— Clark (1990) recognized E. fasciata as an inhabitant of isolated sandy pockets and wind-despersed sandy areas away from the main sand deserts. Paralectotypes are e.g.: BMNH 1946.8.7. 57–59, BMNH 1946.8.7. 34–35 from “Saidabad, southwest of Kerman.” Lantz (1928) mentioned one specimen from “ Afghanistan ”, while Boulenger (1889: 99) mentioned an additional specimen from “on the Helmand ” that probably refers to BMNH 1886.9.21. 87.
