摘要：In Mexico, there are records of lizards of the Eublepharidae family on the coasts of the Atlantic and thePacific, and are considered threatened. The genus Coleonyx shows a wide distribution but the limits of its geographicrange are unknown. Here, we present the first record for C. elegans nemoralis in Mexico State, which represents anexpansion of approximately 129 km into Central Mexico. In addition, we analyze the distribution of group C. elegansbased on its presence records and in a potential distribution model generated with Maxent. The recent discovery ofthis subspecies in Mexico State may be related with a poor sampling effort or lack of knowledge of subspecies.
