О видовой самостоятельности круглоголовки Штрауха — Phrynocephalus strauchi Nik. (Reptilia, Sauria) из Ферганской долины

Abstract

Comparison of two samplings of Phrynocephalus (from the Ferghana Valley and Kyzyl-Kum) shows that individuals from the Ferghana Valley differin a longer tail, in the amount of scales from the parietal to the nasal shields (11-13), in the number of supralabial shields (15-16), in an ovalswelling of thedorsal scales, blue colouration of a subcaudal part and in some other characters. Everything mentioned evidences for a species independence of the Ferghana from which in future should be named Phryno. cephalus strauchi N i k . , 1899.
