Diagnosis	Diagnosis. “Eine relativ kleinwüchsige Art, die sich von C. chalcides durch pentadaktyle Extremitäten, von C. ocellatus durch das nur mit dem 2. Supralabiale in Kontakt stehende Loreale unterscheidet (vgl. hierzu Seva und Escarre 1976). Nasenloch liegt auf der Naht zwischen Rostrale und erstem Supralabiale.” (Salvador 1981: 309).
Comment	Chalcides bedriagai cobosi has been proposed as a replacement name for Chalcides bedriagai bedriagai Valverde, 1966 (non BOSC 1880). Valverde confused the different subspecies and created a "new subspecies" bedriagai, which is a homonym and had to be replaced by Valverde himself (in Salvador, 1998; M.A. Alonso-Zarazaga, pers. comm.).
Etymology	Named after Jacques von Bedriaga (1854-1906), Russian-born herpetologist.
