Abstract
- The article presents the results of a survey of reptiles and amphibians at several lowland habitats along the east coast of Madagascar in 2010. The survey yielded 45 reptiles and 61 amphibians, which totals 106 species. Structural differences between littoral forests and lowland forests appear to cause a difference in the composition of species. The survey shows that the most remarkable records were those of Blaesodactylus antongilensis, Uroplatus lineatus and Mantidactylus majori in the Sahafina forest which comprise important range extensions for the species.
