FIGURE 9 in Description of a new endemic species of mountain lizard from Northwestern Spain: Iberolacerta galani sp. nov. (Squamata: Lacertidae)

FIGURE 9. Specimens of I. galani nov. and pictures of localites across its distribution range: A, hatchlings from Puerto del Morredero (Sierra del Teleno, León, Spain). B, hatchling from the Laguna de los Peces (Sierra Segundera, Zamora, Spain). C, female (paratype) melanistic from Puerto del Morredero (Sierra del Teleno, León, Spain). D, male (paratype) from the Lago de Truchillas (Sierra de la Cabrera Baja, León, Spain). Notice the malachite greenish tinge of the venter and the numerous ocelli on the shoulders. E, Puerto del Morredero (Sierra del Teleno, León, Spain). There is a small ski resort but I. galani nov. mainly inhabits the road and track­taluses. F, Puerto de los Portillinos (Sierra de Teleno, León, Spain) is situated near the Puerto del Morredero. In this locality I. galani nov. inhabits not only the road taluses but also the extensive rocky (quarzites) outcrops at the higher parts and is syntopic with Podarcis bocagei. G, granitoid outcrops surrounded by heathland seen from the dam of the Laguna de los Peces (Sanabria). This is the typical habitat of I. galani nov. in Sanabria and is syntopic with Lacerta schreiberi. The lizard is especially abundant near the glacial lakes of this area. H, abandoned ski resort in the Peña Trevinca area. Iberolacerta galani nov. inhabits the slate slab accumulations by the road and track taluses such as the one seen in the centre of the picture (which constitutes the border between the provinces of León and Orense). It is syntopic with Podarcis bocagei in this area.
