Abstract

Platyceps rhodorachis (Jan, 1863) is a euryoecious polytypic racer distributed from NE Iraq to Central Asia (Kyrgyzstan) and the Himalayas (probably westernmost Nepal). The nominotypical subspecies, occupying most of the species' range, is polymorphic. The typical (striped) phenotype is absent from certain peripheral areas. Notable geographic variation is observed in the number of ventrals, subcaudals, dorsal scales, or maxillary teeth and in the colour pattern. P. r. ladacensis (Anderson, 1871) is only found from the eastern Hindu Kush into northern Himachal Pradesh (India). Its presence south of the Zanskar Range requires confirmation and the status of the Ladakh Cliff Racer is debatable. The identity and systematic position of racers from the vicinity of Ahvaz (Khuzestan) as well as Arabian and southern Red Sea populations commonly assigned to P. rhodorachis pend further investigation. Platyceps semifasciatus Blyth, 1860 is a senior subjective synonym of P. rhodorachis (nomen protectum, valid type species of Platyceps Blyth). P. ventromaculatus (Gray, 1834) from the Makran coast to low-lying NW India and Nepal, for a long time confused with Jan's Cliff Racer (P. rhodorachis sensu stricto), is a mostly parapatric species. Two new taxa of the rhodorachis species group from montane NE Baluchistan Province (P. noeli sp. nov.) and the southern Indus Plain (P. sindhensis sp. nov.) are described. Another racer taxon from northern Azad Jammu and Kashmir remains undesignated. Distinctive morphological character states for P. rhodorachis vis-à-vis the southeast Mediterrano-Iranian P. najadum (Eichwald, 1831), P. karelini (Brandt, 1838) from Libya to the Lake Balqash area and inland SW Pakistan (hybridises in places with P. r. rhodorachis), Baluch endemics including P. mintonorum (Mertens, 1969), and Sindian species (sindhensis, ventromaculatus) are elaborated. An identification key embracing the Indian P. bholanathi (Sharma, 1976) and P. gracilis (Günther, 1862) as well as a review of Platyceps Blyth are provided. This genus is currently comprised of twenty-three mainly southern Palaearctic and Afrotropical as well as two Indian species referred to three (florulentus, najadum, rhodorachis-ventromaculatus) evolutionary lineages.

Abstract

Madagascarophis fuchsi sp. nov. Holotype. ZSM 2130 / 2007 (field number FGZC 1152; Figs. 4 and 5), adult female, collected close to the remains of the French Fort, Montagne des Fran��ais (12 �� 19 ��� 34 ���S, 49 �� 20 ���09���E, ca. 300 m above sea level), Antsiranana province, northern Madagascar, on 27 February 2007, by F. Glaw, J. K��hler, H. Enting, P. Bora, and A. Knoll. Paratypes. ZSM 1620 / 2008 (MgF 0 61, FGZC 1737), adult female, collected at Montagne des Fran��ais, Antsiranana province, northern Madagascar (ca. 12 �� 19 ���S, 49 �� 20 ���E), at an uncertain date but most probably between 2005 and 2007, by the team of Frontiers Madagascar; ZMA 19623 (FGMV 2002.3093), adult female, collected at Montagne des Fran��ais, Antsiranana province, northern Madagascar, on 20 February 2003, by F. Glaw, R. D. Randrianiaina and A. Razafimanantsoa. Diagnosis. The new species is characterized by the combination of the following characters: Relatively low number of midbody scale rows (25), relatively low number of ventral scales (171���172), a low ratio of ventrals/ subcaudals (2.38���2.61), a posterior part of the tail that is almost entirely black dorsally, and a relative high number of scales (13���16) bordering the parietals (temporals + occipital scales, without circumoculars and frontal). Madagascarophis fuchsi sp. nov. differs from all other species of the genus Madagascarophis by (1) the broad contact between the posterior inframaxillaries (genials) which in all other examined Madagascarophis specimens are separated by inserted gulars, and (2) by the lowest number of ventral scales within the genus (171���172 vs. 183���209 in M. colubrinus including M. c. citrinus, 205���224 in M. ocellatus, and 197���232 in M. meridionalis according to Domergue 1987). Furthermore the new species differs from M. meridionalis and M. ocellatus by having only 25 dorsal scale rows at midbody vs. 29���31 in M. ocellatus and 29���33 in M. meridionalis. Madagascarophis fuchsi differs from the syntopic subspecies M. c. septentrionalis (including the holotype and paratype of this taxon, see data in Table 1) by a lower number of midbody scale rows (25 vs. 27���29) and a distinctly lower number of ventral scales (171���172 vs. 186���200). It furthermore differs from M. colubrinus ssp. and M. meridionalis by substantial genetic differentiation (see Nagy et al. 2007, 2012 and Fig. 1). Description of the holotype. Adult female in good state of preservation. Snout-vent length 417 mm, tail length 97 mm (18.9 % of total length). Head length 23.1 mm, largest head width 13.3 mm. Body laterally depressed and head very distinct from neck. Pupil vertically elliptic. Eyes large, horizontal diameter 4.3 mm, larger than distance between anterior margin of eye and posterior edge of nostril (3.9 mm). Supralabials 9, not in contact with eye. Infralabials 12, 1st pair in contact behind mental and first 5 infralabials touching anterior inframaxillaries. Rostral broader than high (3.3 mm vs. 2.1 mm) and visible from above. Nasal divided below nostril, touching 1 st and 2 nd supralabial; upper margin of nostril almost touches internasal. Loreal 1, wider than high (1.8 mm vs. 1.3 mm) touching 2 nd and 3 rd supralabial. Circumoculars 9, including 1 large supraocular, 2 preoculars, 3 suboculars and 3 postoculars; upper preocular reaches top of head and touches frontal in one point at left side only. A small additional scale between 3 rd and 4 th supralabial and circumoculars on right side of head, this scale being not in contact with the loreal. Temporals according to formula 3 + 3. Upper surface of head with typical "colubrid" scalation consisting of 9 large shields. A pair of internasals (scale length 2.0 mm; suture 1.5 mm), a pair of prefrontals (scale length 2.6 mm; suture 2.5 mm); frontal longer than broad (6.4 mm vs. 4.0 mm), longer and broader than supraoculars (6.4 mm vs. 5.6 mm / 4.0 mm vs. 3.2 mm) and longer than distance between its anterior margin and posterior margin of rostral (6.4 mm vs. 4.2 mm); a pair of parietals (scale length 6.9 mm; suture 5.0 mm) which are bordered by 13 scales (temporals + occipital scales, without circumoculars and frontal). Two pairs of inframaxillaries of nearly same length but anterior ones broader. Posterior pair in broad contact with each other and separated by inserted gulars at posterior end only. 4 gulars separating posterior inframaxillaries from first preventral. 3 preventrals and 171 ventrals, cloacal scute divided, subcaudals 72 + terminal spine, mostly divided (exact formula: 1 / 1 + 4 [undivided] + 24 / 24 + 2 [undivided] + 41 / 41 +terminal spine). Ratio ventrals/subcaudals 2.38. Dorsal scales smooth, each with two apical pits along body, in 25 - 25 - 19 straight rows (counted at tenth ventral, midbody, and tenth ventral before vent) and homogeneous in size. Dorsocaudal scales smooth each with mostly 2 apical pits along the tail. For detailed dorsal scale row reduction and dorsocaudal scale row reduction see Appendix. Dentition: 11 anterior maxillary teeth of nearly same size, followed after a diastema by two distinctly enlarged and grooved fangs. Maxillary bone reaching beyond palatine bone. Some palatine teeth enormously enlarged, larger than corresponding maxillary teeth. 6 + 13 mandibular teeth. Beside the small and indistinct anteriormost tooth the anterior 6 are distinctly enlarged (the 3 rd ��� 5 th largest) followed by 13 smaller teeth gradually decreasing in size posteriorly. Coloration and pattern (Fig. 5 a): Dorsal ground color of head, body and tail in life orange, which faded rapidly in alcohol to a pale cream ground color. Anterior part of head cape slightly darker, with a weakly developed dark postocular stripe. Color of iris in life orange (dark grey in preservative). Body pattern consists of irregular dark bands vertebrally and two rows of irregular shaped dark spots laterally, giving a reticulated appearance in general. Number of vertebral bands ca. 51. Upper row of lateral spots arranged alternating to bands and lower spots correspond to position of vertebral bands. Dorsal color of tail pale with irregular dark spots becoming almost entirely black posteriorly. Ventral surface of head, body and tail uniform pale cream. At posteriormost part of tail some subcaudals with black color. Description of paratypes. ZSM 1620 / 2008: Adult female in good state of preservation. This paratype differs from the holotype in the following aspects: Snout-vent length 438 mm, tail length 99 mm (18.4 % of total length). Tip of tail obtusely rounded, the terminal scale missing. Head length 24.5 mm, largest head width 15.2 mm. Horizontal diameter of eye 4.7 mm. Distance between anterior margin of eye and posterior edge of nostril 4.5 mm. Supralabials 8; infralabials 11, on right side 11 th infralabial reaches slightly beyond posterior margin of last supralabial; first 4 infralabials in contact with anterior inframaxillaries. Rostral wider than high (3.7 mm vs. 2.0 mm); loreal wider than high (2.2 mm vs. 1.7 mm); upper preoculars reach top of head and touch the frontal on both sides; temporals according to formula 2 + 2 / 2 + 3. A pair of internasals (scale length 2.6 mm; suture 2.1 mm); a pair of prefrontals (scale length 2.8 mm; suture 2.5 mm); frontal longer than broad (6.9 mm vs. 4.5 mm), longer and broader than supraoculars (6.9 mm vs. 5.6 mm / 4.5 mm vs. 3.7 mm) and longer than the distance between its anterior margin and the posterior margin of rostral (6.9 mm vs. 4.9 mm); a pair of parietals (scale length 7.2 mm; suture 5.3 mm) which are bordered by 16 scales (temporals + occipital scales, without postoculars). 3���4 gulars separating posterior inframaxillaries from first preventral. 3 preventrals and 172 ventrals, cloacal scute divided, subcaudals 66 without terminal spine, mostly divided (exact formula: 2 / 2 + 3 [undivided] + 21 / 21 + 2 [undivided] + 11 / 11 + 9 [undivided] + 1 / 1 + 3 [undivided] + 14 / 14). Ratio ventrals/subcaudals 2.61. Dorsal scales in 23-25 - 18 straight rows (counted at tenth ventral, midbody, and tenth ventral before vent). For detailed dorsal scale row reduction and dorsocaudal scale row reduction see Appendix. Dentition similar to the holotype. Coloration and pattern (in alcohol) rather different from the holotype: Dorsal ground color of body and head grey brown. Sides of head of same color with some light areas on supralabials. A slightly darker postocular stripe present. A dark stripe runs from suture of parietals onto neck, where it contacts a dark ��������� - shaped marking. Ventral surface of head strongly dark pale marbled. Body pattern consists of irregular black bands vertebrally and two rows of irregular shaped dark spots laterally. Number of vertebral bands ca. 44. Upper row of lateral spots arranged alternating to bands and lower spots corresponding to position of vertebral bands. Sometimes elements of pattern connected by thin dark lines giving a netlike appearance. Ventrolaterally dorsal ground color becomes marbled with yellowish ventral color. Ventral ground color yellowish irregularly powdered with dark pigment, the latter being more prominent on anterior and posterior part of venter. Outer edges of ventrals marbled with darker dorsal coloration. Dorsal color of the tail becomes entirely black at the tip. Subcaudals dark grey with only few pale markings. Paratype ZMA 19623 was not available for study and the data provided here and in Table 1 are derived from pictures taken by E. Dondorp of the preserved specimen. According to these pictures, the dorsal coloration is yellowish with a moderately regular pattern of dark pigment which is concentrated on the edges of adjacent dorsal scales, forming a reticulated pattern similar to that found in the holotype (Fig. 5 a). The ventral sides of head, body and tail are uniformly yellow without dark pigments. According to the field notes the dorsal coloration was orange in life. Habitat, distribution and conservation status. The holotype was found active early at night during the rainy season in the karstic "tsingy" limestone area of Montagne des Fran��ais on the ground in deciduous dry forest. Although our observations are very limited it seems that M. fuchsi might be restricted to the tsingy formations whereas M. colubrinus is relatively abundant around and below the limestone karst. Our surveys in 2008 did not reveal any additional Madagascarophis fuchsi in Montagne des Fran��ais and surveys in nearby areas like Foret d'Orangea, Ampombofofo, Windsor Castle, Nosy Hara, Foret d'Ambre and Ankarana (D'Cruze et al. 2007, 2008; Megson et al. 2009; unpublished obs.) did not record this species. All these data indicate that M. fuchsi might be a microendemic species of Montagne des Fran��ais or a small region in northern Madagascar. Unfortunately, our surveys in 2007 and 2008 revealed that the forest of the Montagne de Fran��ais is under strong pressure and heavily degraded in almost all areas visited by us despite its recent inclusion in the network of Malagasy nature reserves. As in other parts of Madagascar the recent political instability seems to foster the degradation and the rate of forest clearing observed by us in 2007 and 2008 was clearly much higher than in the period of 2000���2007. Using the same rationale and IUCN criteria as applied during the assessment of Madagascan reptiles for presumably endemic species of Montagne des Fran��ais (e. g. Paroedura lohatsara) we suggest to classify Madagascarophis fuchsi as Critically Endangered, because its Extent of Occurrence is less than 100 km 2, all individuals are from a single location, and there is continuing and serious decline in the extent and quality of its habitat at Montagne des Fran��ais. Etymology. The senior author wishes to dedicate this new species to his former colleague and snake specialist Dieter Fuchs in recognition of his long-lasting work (1960���2007) as a technician in the herpetology section of the Zoologische Staatssammlung M��nchen, with congratulations and best wishes for his 70 th birthday., Published as part of Glaw, Frank, Kucharzewski, Christoph, K��hler, J��rn, Vences, Miguel & Nagy, Zolt��n T., 2013, Resolving an enigma by integrative taxonomy: Madagascarophis fuchsi (Serpentes: Lamprophiidae), a new opisthoglyphous and microendemic snake from northern Madagascar, pp. 317-332 in Zootaxa 3630 (2) on pages 324-328, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3630.2.7, http://zenodo.org/record/219108

24. Von exotischen Kaltblütern zum deutschen Vollblut - Leben und Werk des Herpetologen und Hippologen RICHARD STERNFELD (1884-1943).

Author

MÄNNEL, ELLEN and KUCHARZEWSKI, CHRISTOPH

Abstract

RICHARD STERNFELD (1884-1943) was an eminent German herpetologist and hippologist, who worked initially (1907-1913) at the Zoologisches Museum der Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität zu Berlin, a part of the Museum für Naturkunde, Berlin, and later (1913-1920) at the Museum der Senckenbergischen Naturforschenden Gesellschaft in Frankfurt am Main, the today's Senckenberg Forschungsinstitut und Naturmuseum. During the First World War he served first at the east front and in Macedonia, followed by a short period at the west front before he was sent at the end of the war to the military forestry administration of the jungle of Bialowies, located at the border between Poland and Belarus. When he lost his job in Frankfurt in 1920, he returned to Berlin and worked from that point on at the topic of German horse breeding and horse racing. In this context, he was editor of the newspaper “Sport-Welt". Based on his Jewish faith, he lost this position in 1937 under the Nazis policy of „Arisierung“, which means the replacement of Jews in economy, science, and culture. From 1941 onwards, Richard Sternfeld was a forced laborer at the Ehrich & Graetz AG in Berlin-Treptow until he was deported to Auschwitz at the beginning of March 1943 and got murdered there. In his 14 years of herpetological activity Sternfeld altogether described or named 124 taxa (6 amphibians, 117 recent reptiles and one genus of dinosaur), of which 62 are currently considered valid. A complete list of these taxa and a bibliography of RICHARD STERNFELD is provided in the four appendices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The article evaluates the Platyceps karelini and the Coluber chesneii snakes living in Iran and Pakistan. A study was performed on 79 Playceps karelini snakes and 10 Iranian Coluber chesneii, where the animals were assessed in terms of various factors including morphology, head measurements, and body scales. Results showed that most of the snakes shared dorsal scales with partnered apical pits, while the longest snakes reached 700 millimetres in snout-vent length, and smallest ones reaching at about 185 millimeters long.

Abstract

The article discusses a research study on Spalerosophis diadema populations from Iraq to Pakistan and their encountered set of taxonomic and systematic difficulties. Analyzed were intraspecific variations in their ventrals, perioculars and subcaudal head and body scales data, morphological data and demographic data and the Periops parallelus extant syntypes. Results indicated that after examining 12 Field Musem of Natural History, Chicago (FMNH) the Spalerosophis diadema from Teheran, Iran are different in colour pattern with dorsal markings from the Iraq diadema. It also presents the early descriptions of Spalerosophis diadema, Spalerosophis diadema cliffordii and Spalerosophis diadema schirasianus.

Abstract

We report on the rediscovery of the previously unlocated single type specimen of Naja(Hamadryas?) fasciataPeters, 1861 from the collection of the Museum für Naturkunde der Humboldt‐Universität Berlin, Germany (formerly Zoologisches Museum Berlin), review its taxonomic history, and provide a redescription of the specimen. Morphological examination revealed that it is not a member of Najaor Ophiophagus, but belongs to the endemic Philippine elapid genus Hemibungarus. The juvenile snake most closely resembles juveniles of Hemibungarus calligaster calligaster(Wiegmann, 1834) in characters of its external phenotype, and is therefore referred to the synonymy of the latter.

36. The real identity of Leptodiranycthemera Werner, 1901 from Ecuador: a junior synonym of Oxyrhopuspetolarius (Linnaeus, 1758) (Serpentes, Dipsadidae).

Abstract

Leptodiranycthemera Werner, 1901, was described from a specimen collected in Ecuador. No information on the holotype was published after its description. In the most recent review of Leptodeira, Leptodiranycthemera was considered to be a synonym of Leptodeiraannulataannulata, although the author emphasized that the holotype was lost and did not include the pholidotic data from the original description in his account of Leptodeiraannulataannulata. Since this review, a number of authors have accepted this synonymy. Recently, analyzing specimens of Leptodeira in the Museum für Naturkunde, Berlin, Germany, we discovered the holotype of Leptodiranycthemera. This holotype is re-described here, and its correct identity is determined. Based on the analysis of meristic characters and the color of the holotype, we recognize Leptodiranycthemera as a junior synonym of Oxyrhopuspetolarius.
