- Eremias suphani Başoğlu & Hellmich, 1968 HOLOTYPE. ZDEU 31 /1957. TYPE LOCALITY. Süphan Dağı [= Mt. Süphan], [Lake] Aygir Gölü (ex. Franzen & Heckes 1999), Bitlis Prov., Turkey. DISTRIBUTION. Turkey and Iran. DISTRIBUTION IN IRAN. Fig. 106. Confirmed from Iran recently by Rastegar-Pouyani et al. (2013c), who reported it from West Azerbaijan Prov. HABITAT. All known localities are situated in the vicinity of large water bodies (Lake Van in Turkey, Lake Urmia in Iran) implying that E. suphani is adapted to moister habitats in mountain steppe regions (Bischoff & Böhme 1980). REMARKS. Originally described as a subspecies of E. velox. Bischoff (1978) suggested it to be a subspecies of E. strauchi and finally Bischoff & Böhme (1980) elevated E. suphani to a species level. Its distinction from E. strauchi was confirmed by genetic data by Rastegar-Pouyani et al. (2013b). REFERENCES. Bischoff & Böhme (1980); Franzen & Heckes (1999); Rastegar-Pouyani et al. (2013c).
