| Résumé : | Laudakia nuristanica is one of the least-studied agamid lizards distributed in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Only 17 specimens are currently known in five museum collections from two neighbouring provinces of Afghanistan (Nuristan and Kunar) and the Chitral Valley in Pakistan. Our recent collection of agamid lizards from Afghanistan brings additional data to the species distribution. We recorded the species in north-eastern Afghanistan, particularly in the provinces of Panjshir, Parwan, and Takhar. Morphological characters presented provide additional information to the original species description. |
