| Comment | Synonymy: Agama congica has been treated as a synonym of A. agama for most of its existence but appears to be a valid species (P. Wagner, pers. comm. cited in Ceriaco et al. 2014 and subsequent authors). See also notes in Agama agama. Distribution: see map in Marques et al. 2018: 289 (Angola) |
