Comments.
There are no records of
Lacertaspis rohdei
in Bioko.
Mertens (1968)
found colour differences between the populations of
L. rohdei
from Mt.
Cameroon
and Mt. Kupe. As
Mertens (1968)
did not compare nor mention specimens of
L. rohdei
from Bioko in his work, it seems that the reference to
Mertens (1968)
made by
Schmitz
et al.
(2005)
is a mistake.
Specimens examined.
Two
specimens.
