Alternative title:Patagonian herpetology. XIII. The identity of Liolaemus goetschi with the melanops form of the Liolaemus fitzingeri complex (Rio Negro and Chubut)
Abstract
The synonymy of Liolaemus goetschi Müller and Hellmich and Liolaemus fitzingeri melanops Burmeister is supported by the serological evidence. Individuals morphologically indistinguishable from Liolaemus goetschi are present in the polymorphic populations of Liolaemus fitzingeri melanops from Puerto Madryn (Chubut). The present biological and evolutionary trends of the fitzingeri complex and its several “incipient species” are analyzed.
