| Comment | Synonymy after Lazell 1972. According to Lazell (1972), “the species does not, and never did, occur on this small island [Tortola] in the British Virgins. I assume this to be a blunder, and suspect the real type locality as the somewhat similar sounding Tobago. I, therefore, revise the type locality to Crown Point, Tobago, where this species is abundant.”
Size: max snouth-vent-length (SVL) in mm (male/female):125/77.
Species groups: Dactyloa roquet species group (fide NICHOLSON et al. 2012). |
