1887 Lytorhynchus ridgewayi Boulenger, G.A. , Description of a new snake from Afghanistan. Annals and Magazine of Natural History, ser. 5, 20:413–414.
SYNTYPES.— BMNH 1946.1.14. 77–78, from “Chin-Kilak, Afghanistan ” [ Chinkilok , Herat Province] .
SYNONYM.— Lytorhynchus gabrielis Werner, 1938 from “Unter Ziarat, Belutschistan [nicht weit von der afghanischen Grenze entfert]” [= Ziarat, Baluchistan (close to the Afghan border)] (holotype NMW 23440 View Materials ].
LOCALITIES.— 35 km S of Darweshan (CAS 120495); 35 mi downstream from Girishk, Dasht-i-Margo Area, Chah-i-Angir (CAS 84639) [see pl. 12, fig. 1 for distribution].
REMARKS.— The specimen collected by Clark (1990; CAS 120495) was found after sunset on gravel strewn alluvium. Sindaco et al. (2013) provide a record from Pakistan (Saindak) close to the Afghan border so that it is possible that the species also occurs in extreme southern parts of Afghanistan.
