Remarks: We recorded 33 individuals of this common diurnal lacertid (Fig. 4M) throughout the study period on all transects between 0800 h and 1930 h. All lizards were darting between bushes in search of prey and places for hiding. Average T b was high at 37.8 ± 1.2 °C (36.2– 39.5 °C; N = 8) at T sub ranging from 31–65 °C and T a ranging from 33–39 °C. The genus Latastia consists of multiple similar-looking species and subspecies, and in some cases, only the suspected distribution range allows for identification. Rigorous genetic analysis is necessary to update the taxonomic status, the distinguishing morphological character traits, and the distribution ranges of existing specimens.
