Lacerta saxicola lantzicyreni DAREVSKY et EISELT (1967: 107) Lectotype (designated by Darevsky & Eiselt 1967 ): GNM 2459 , female, “Erciyes Dað, ca. 1900 m ü. d. M.” [ Erciyes (= Erdschias ) Dagh in Kayseri , Central Anatolia , Turkey ]. Etymology: Named after the French herpetologist Louis A. Lantz ( 1886–1953 ) and the Swedish herpetologist Carl A. O. Cyrén ( 1878–1946 ), who made a significant contribution to the taxonomy of the Caucasian lizards. Present name: Darevskia valentini lantzicyreni ( Darevsky et Eiselt, 1967 ) fide Ananjeva et al. (2006) . Remarks: Replacement name ( nomen novum ) for Lacerta saxicola mehelyi Lantz et Cyrén, 1936 (nec Lacerta fiumana var. mehelyi Bolkay, 1919 ). This name was published in one year by Darevsky (1967) and Darevsky & Eiselt (1967) , but Darevsky’s monograph was signed on November 27, and his article with Eiselt was published in the journal “Annalen des Naturhistorischen Museums in Wien” in October (the article itself states that the manuscript was received by the editors on December 16, 1966 ). Moreover, in neither work was there a reference to the other publication. By release date, priority is given to Darevsky & Eiselt.
