Aspidoscelis martyris?

Post by Schell »

I am trying to enter a record for this species and it does not appear to be in the database. Seems unlikely that it would be under an alternate taxonomy.

Thoughts?

Cheers,

Rob

The current SSAR list does not recognize them. It appears they were lumped in with A. h. schmidti first, and then A. h. schmidti was dropped because it was believed to be a synonym of A. h. beldingi. Either that, or I am reading the wrong notes in the SSAR list.

EDIT Yep, I was reading the wrong notes.

I can't find any mention of that taxon anywhere in the SSAR list or notes.
