Noteworthy Distributional Records for the Herpetofauna of Oaxaca, México.

Even though there have been several recent accounts on the geographic distribution of the Oaxacan herpetofauna (e.g., Casas- Andreu et al. 1996, 2004; Kohler 2008, 2011 [in part]; Canseco-Márquez and Gutiérrez-Mayén 2010 [in part]; Johnson et. al. 2010 [in part]; Wilson and Johnson 2010 [in part]), presumably many range gaps remain within the state. From 2011 through 2014, we began actively searching for amphibians and reptiles in Oaxaca to fill in those lapses, primarily in the central and southcentral portions of the state. Herein, we report new municipality records for four frogs, three lizards, and five snakes. All specimens were photographed in situ and released. Photographic vouchers were deposited in The University of Texas at El Paso Biodiversity Collections (UTEP) and Laboratorio de Herpetología, Facultad de Estudios Superiores, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM FES MCBFES). Taxonomy follows Wilson et al. (2013a, b) and Ruane et al. (2014) and common names are those listed in Liner and Casas-Andreu (2008). Map datum for coordinates was WGS84. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
