J. Hallermann et W. Bohme, A review of the genus Pseudocalotes (Squamata : Agamidae), with description of a new species from West Malaysia, AMPHIB-REPT, 21(2), 2000, pp. 193-210
A new species of the genus Pseudocalotes (P. dringi n. sp.) from the mounta
in forest of Western Malaysia is described. The holotype of the new species
was formerly regarded as a syntype of P. floweri. A review of all species
of the genus is given including a differential diagnosis and a key to the s
pecies. Diagnostic characters for the genera Bronchocela, Calotes, Dendraga
ma were established. Paracalotes poilani and Pseudocophotis sumatrana, show
ing all diagnostic characters of the genus Pseudocalotes, are included in t
hat genus. Members of Pseudocalotes of the Indochinese region can be differ
entiated from members inhabiting the Sunda region by the shape of the scale
s under the third toe.
