Lygodactylus bradfieldi Hewitt, 1932

Annals of the Natal Museum, 7(1):126; Plate VI, Fig. 10 .

Syntypes (16): PEM R14574–82 , 14586–92 (formerly AMG 6075 ) ; Quickborn near Okahandja, Namibia; Mr. R. D. Bradfield, 14 May 1929 .

Remarks. The description refers to a series of adult males and females comprising the type series. Although a specimen is illustrated, none of the existing PEM material could be associated with it. Most of the remaining types have either partly or fully detached tails. One specimen (MCZ R33443) is listed as a syntype in the MCZ online database, and must have been sent to Loveridge by Hewitt.
