Eublepharis angramainyu (Anderson & Leviton 1966)

Type locality
Masjid soleyman & Batvand in the Khuzesdan province Iran. Our collection areas are centered arround the western foothills of the Zagros Mountatins.

Color Pattern
Dorsum pattern less and pinkish to white in color

Size
It is smaller in size to eublepharis macularius, afghanicus or the very large turkmenicus with males of this species ranging from a Snout-Vent length of 14 to 14.5 cm,  females 13 to 13.5 cm S-V length.

Habitat
The area in which they are found in the western foothills of the Zagros Mountains is a region of extensive gypsum deposits - they are fairly well distributed and mostly found under these stones while spending the day in the deep crevices and small caverns in the gypsum. In these retreats there is water for much or all of the year, and the relative humidity is fairly high. Other than the seasonal plantings of grains and the annual herbaceous plants in the spring, the hillsides where this animal lives are devoid of vegetation.
