摘要:Through a review of egg incubation times and the colour patterns of hatchlings of green lizards from the left side of the Soča (Isonzo) River, and the island of Cres, it has been found that they belong to a recently established species, Lacerta (viridis) bilineata Daudin 1802. It is from now on a member of the list of the herpetofauna of Slovenia and Croatia. At the same time L. viridis (Laurenti 1768) has been confirmed on the sand dunes around Đurđevac (Croatia). On the basis of the known distribution of green lizards and types of habitat in the case of the finds to date, the possible contact areas between the two taxa are considered.
