Diagnosis | |
Comment | Similar species: Sauresia synoria and S. cayemitae can only be separated by the frontal width by the SVL (3.78–4.32 [n=2] versus 3.11–3.75 [n=7]). Sauresia synoria sp. nov. and S. sepsoides cannot be distinguished morphologically. Multiple characters distinguish S. synoria sp. nov. and its closest relative, S. manicula sp. nov. |
