  • Fuiveila,Sinai
  • Locality Remarks:
  • Locality corrected by YLWerner OCT2004. The paper "On Some Herpetological Records from Sinai and Transjordan" (Hoofien, JH. 1964) states that Fuweila, Syria does not exist and that most likely the specimen has come from Bir el Fuweili, southern Transjordan. The specific locality has been updated to reflect this change. 26SEPT2019 CFalvey.
