Abstract

The lizard Lacerta danfordi had been reported from Petra (Jordan) and Mt. Hermon. Examination of recent taxonomic literature and 266 specimens of the L. danfordi-L. laevis complex from Turkey, Cyprus, Lebanon, Israel and Jordan shows that the populations concerned belong to L. laevis. Characterized by lacking a masseteric plate, this disjunctly distributed morph may be referred to as L. laevis cf. kulzeri Mueller and Wettstein, 1932.
