Paraguay. Distribution. In the Caatinga it is recorded only in the state of Bahia. It shows restricted distribution in the Caatinga and occurs along one ecoregion (Table 1 ; Appendix S3). Distributed in high elevation areas (787-872 m a.s.l.), with annual mean temperature 21 to 22°C, and average annual rainfall between 690 and 813 mm. Ecological notes. Terrestrial and diurnal ( Vrcibradic et al. 2004 ). It has been associated with rupestrian fields, found in rocky outcrop crevices reported by Freitas and Silva (2007) . Diet based mainly on arthropods, no information about the preferred items on the diet of this species is known ( Vrcibradic et al. 2004 ). Viviparous, no detailed data on the number of embryos of the species per clutch are known, but it could be similar to other Aspronema (Vrcibradic et al. 2011).
