FERREIRA, Leandro Valle et al. First occurrence of Tupinambis quadrilineatus Manzani & Abe, 1997 (Squamata: Teiidae) in the Amazonian Biome. Bol. Mus. Para. Emilio Goeldi Cienc. Nat. [online]. 2009, vol.4, n.3, pp.355-361. ISSN 1981-8114.
We here report the occurrence of Tupinambis quadrilineatus Manzani & Abe, 1997 (Squamata: Teiidae) in the Amazonian biome, in vegetation of savanna situated in southeastern Fará, Brazil. This region has extensive fragments of savanna situated outside any protected area of Fará. T. quadrilineatus was only known from Mato Grosso, Goiás, Tocantins and Minas Gerais states, within the Cerrado biome. This is the first report of the species in savanna in the Amazonian biome and in the state of Fará. This discovery reinforces the idea that knowledge about Amazonian biodiversity is still insufficient. We recommend that new inventories be made in the region and that savanna fragments in southeastern Fará be incorporated into new protected areas.
