Chalcides bottegi var. thierryi Tornier, 1901: 87 .

MATERIAL EXAMINED. — 2 specimens: Togo. Mango, ZMB 16607. Ghana. Yendi, ZMB 16284.

HABITATS AND DISTRIBUTION. — The Togolese syntype of this species was collected in Mango (ecological zone I) ( Tornier 1901). This genus was reviewed by Greenbaum et al. (2006). The current consevation status of this species in Togo needs to be evaluated because of the strong degradation of the natural ecosystems in the North of the country. Our recent survey in the area did not allow to observe any specimens.

Family GERRHOSAURIDAE Fitzinger, 1843
