Der taxonomische Wirrwarr um den südwestafrikanischen Wüstenrenner Pedioplanis undata (A. Smith, 1838) - eine nachträgliche Dokumentation.

Two decades ago, a decision of the International Commission of Zoological Nomenclature was made to set aside the types of the southwest African sand lizard Pedioplanis undata (A. Smith, 1838) and to designate a neotype to maintain nomenclatural stability. Both the application and the subsequent decision were published in a short way in the Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature without any pictorial documentation. To rectify this omission, and to make the decision of that time comprehensible, the relevant figures of the specimens involved are presented here. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
