Abronia gadovii, also known commonly as Gadow's alligator lizard and el escorpión de Gadow in Mexican Spanish, is a species of lizard in the family Anguidae. The species is endemic to the highlands of the Sierra Madre del Sur in Guerrero and Oaxaca, Mexico.[1][2] Two subspecies are recognized:[2]

Etymology

The specific name, gadovii, is in honor of German ornithologist Hans Friedrich Gadow.[3]

Habitat

The preferred natural habitat of A. gadovii is forest, including second-growth forest.[1]

Description

A. gadovii may attain a snout-to-vent length (SVL) of about 9 cm (3.5 in), plus a tail length of about 15 cm (5.9 in).[4]

Diet

A. gadovii preys predominately upon insects, and is known to also devour small lizards.[5]

Reproduction

A. gadovii is ovoviviparous.[2]

Subspecies

Two subspecies are recognized as being valid including the nominotypical subspecies.

  • Abronia gadovii gadovii (Boulenger, 1913) – Guerrero
  • Abronia gadovii levigata (Tihen, 1949) – Oaxaca

Nota bene: A trinomial authority in parentheses indicates that the subspecies was originally described in a genus other than Abronia.
