Comment | Synonymy: Boulenger 1891 referred Pelturagonia cephalum to the synonymy of Japalura nigrilabris. De Rooij (1915) accepted Boulenger’s synonymy, and her description of Japalura nigrilabris is actually based on Pe. cephalum as previously pointed out by Inger (1960). |
Etymology | Named after the black coloration of the upper lip, at least in some specimens, from Latin niger, nigra, nigrum = black, and Latin labrum = lip. |
