External morphological traits allowing unambiguous diagnosis of the three north-western Colombian clades of Pholidobolus lizards recovered in our phylogenetic analysis. Pholidobolus argosi sp. nov. lacks one supraocular (numbered) and the prefrontal (filled in red) scales, both of which are present in the other two species. Males of P. odinsae sp. nov. exhibit predominantly black and dark grey ventral colouration, which is red with black markings in males of the two other species, as further shown by the image segmentation analyses: the stacked areas denote the proportion of pixels with each summarised hue. Lastly, P. celsiae sp. nov. reaches larger adult body size than the other two species, as evidenced by blue (clade A in Fig. 1), orange (B), and yellow (D) bars, which denote range of variation, and the black points, that represent the actual body size of the shown holotypes." figureDoi="10.3897/zookeys.1141.94774.figure3" httpUri="https://binary.pensoft.net/fig/797358" pageId="0" pageNumber="119">3</figureCitation>

The species is currently known from forest edges, and open areas including pastures, crops, and around human buildings. Most specimens were seen and found amongst grass or leaf litter even hundreds of metres away from the nearest forests. They appeared clearly heliothermic: within minutes after the sun appeared, they came out of their refuges, remain exposed, and extended their ribs increasing the dorsal surface available for sun basking. Under sunny conditions, the species seems to be abundant at the known localities. Its distribution seems not to be patchy, and it is known from more than five locations. Although they encompass less than 500 km2 (Fig.
