Abstract

Lycodon is a species-rich genus that currently contains 72 named species. Lycodon zayuensis Jiang, Wang, Jin & Che, 2020, was described from Lower Chayu Town, Chayu County, Tibet, China, based on a single female holotype. During our recent field work, three additional specimens, including two females and one male, were collected and identified as L. zayuensis based on morphological comparison and the cytochrome b mitochondrial gene (1049 bp). Here, we provide an expanded description of this recently described species based on all known specimens.

摘要

颈槽蛇属是一个物种丰富的属，目前包含72个已命名的物种。察隅颈槽蛇（Lycodon zayuensis）Jiang、Wang、Jin和Che于2020年根据单一雌性模式标本，在中国西藏察隅县下察隅镇描述。在我们最近的野外工作中，又采集到了三个标本，包括两只雌性和一只雄性，通过形态比较和细胞色素b线粒体基因（1049 bp）鉴定为察隅颈槽蛇。在此，我们基于所有已知标本对这个最近描述的物种进行了扩展描述。
