Ablepharus kitaibelii (Bibron and Bory de Saint-Vincent, 1833)

The Snake-eyed Skink was recorded for Lefkada by Werner (1894: 232), Lehrs (1912: 449), and Poulakakis et al. (2005: 254). We observed three individuals in a stony pasture near Agios Ilias (19/5/2019) ( Fig. 3A ). There are also some citizen science data from near Kariotes (21/3/2020), Lefkada town (16/11/2019), and Marantochori (20 / 4 / 2019).
