- Tropidodryas striaticeps (Cope, 1869) (Figs. 20.1 and 32.3) Recorded in the states Bahia and Minas Gerais. It is distributed from lower areas below 500 m in Atlantic Forest contact to highlands on the eastern portion of the Caatinga. It is also recorded in the Atlantic Forest region (Guedes & Marques 2011). It apparently inhabits arboreal and bushy caatinga (semi-arid lowands) to humid forest next to Atlantic Forest and in relictual highland forests (Handam & Lira-da-Silva 2007; Guedes & Marques 2011). It was said to occur in cerrado and arboreal caatinga in highlands of the Diamantina Plateau (Freitas & Silva 2007).
