” together with a short description and a “very mediocre” picture as early as 1813. Fitzinger did not mention the location data in his introductory text but later in the detailed description. Professor Kitaibel had already died when the shipment arrived in Vienna. At that time (18061851), Carl von Schreibers headed the “Vereinigten k.k. Naturalien-Cabinete”, the predecessor of the Natural History Museum Vienna (NMW). Fitzinger saw himself unable to provide a detailed description of these lizards (because of the short description and the very poor picture) until he received a message from Joseph Sadler, the curator of the Natural History Cabinet of the Royal National Museum in Pesth. Because of this information, he was now able to examine the specimens in detail and to provide a good illustration of the species. It remains open whether Fitzinger received further specimens from Sadler or (only) further information. It is also unclear if Fitzinger got the terra typica data from Professor Kitaibel (via Schreibers) or from Mr. Sadler. In any case, it should take 11 more years to describe this scincid species from
