DistributionPakistan, India (Gujarat, Assam, Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Mizoram, Tripura, Nagaland, Punjab, Odisha etc.), Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh, Myanmar (= Burma), Thailand (incl. Pathum Thani), Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam (Thanh Hoa etc.), N West Malaysia

malcolmi: Thailand; Type locality: Phu Phak Khi Nak (mt.), near Ban Nam Yen (subvillage), Kok Sathon (village), Dan Sai (district), Loei (province), Thailand.

postnasalis: Thailand; Type locality: From Phu Lorn Lo (mt.), 2100m elevation, Kok Sathon (village), Dan Sai (district), Loei (province), Thailand.

quadrifasciata: Thailand; Type locality: Phu Nam Lang (mt.),
1780 m. elevation, Ban Khok (subvillage), Na Phung (village), Dan Sai (district), Loei (province), Thailand.

Type locality: restricted to Rangpur, Bengal [at present in Bangladesh] by Taylor and Elbel, 1958  
Reproductionoviparous 
TypesHolotype: ZSI 2344. the holotype of Eutropis macularia is now fragmented and faded, thus, it is impossible to examine its coloration and other important characters (vide Batuwita, 2016; Fig. 6).
Holotype: KU (= KUMNH) 40110 [postnasalis]
Holotype: FMNH, originally EHT-HMS 31802 [quadrifasciata]
Holotype: FMNH 178216, originally EHT-HMS 31774 [malcolmi] 
DiagnosisDiagnosis (quadrifasciata): Four dark dotted dorsal lines on back; scales on chin and throat with brown borders; most scales of sides each with a lighter area; an axillary pocket; anterior loreal usually divided; area of specialized "chigger" scales on leg above ankle [from TAYLOR & ELBEL 1958]. 
CommentSynonymy partly after SMITH 1935. Mabuya allapallensis has been treated as a synonym of Mabuya macularis (Blyth, 1853) by Smith (1935). Sharma (1976) and Das (1991) considered it valid but Mirza et al. (2010) synonymized it again with E. macularia. Eutropis madaraszi has been removed from the synonymy of E. macularia. All 3 subspecies are of doubtful but unresolved taxonomic status (Ota et al. 2001, Pauwels & David 2005), hence we consider them as synonyms of macularia for the time being. Euprepes brevis GÜNTHER 1875 and Lygosoma dawsoni ANNANDALE 1909 have been removed from the synonymy of E. macularia by Ganesh et al. 2021 and are now considered as valid species.

Karyotype: Mabuya macularia consists of karyologically different populations. Specimens from NW Thailand had 2n = 38 chromosomes while specimens from SW Thailand invariably had 2n = 34 chromosomes (Ota et al. 2001).

Distribution: not in Sri Lanka, since Batuwita 2016 has assigned all Sri Lankan populations to E. greeri, austini, and madaraszi. 
EtymologyMabuya allapallensis was named after its type locality.
