Description of new Iguanidae of the genus Liolaemus

Four species of Liolaemus are described, The first, L, salinicola sp. n., belongs to the subgenus Ortholaemus; it is the largest of all'and is probably endemic around the salt marsh of Pipanaco (Prov. of Catamarca, Argentina). The second, L. fittkaui sp.n., from the Cochabamba region, Bolivia, is related to L. ortizi Laurent from Cuzco, Perú and might be a southern vicariant. The third, L. irregularis sp.n., from the region.of San Antonio de los Cobres, Prov. of Salta, seems to have been mistaken for L. mocquardi Pellegrin described from the ?Altiplano?, boundary of Perú and Bolivia, which is only the female of L. pulcher, itself a synonym of L. ornatus Koslowsky. The fourth, L. poecilochromus sp. n., from Antofagasta de la Sierra (Prov. of Catamarca) had been previously mistaken by the author for L, multicolor Koslowsky of which it may be a southwestern vicariant; it differs from it by its more strongly contrasted color-pattern, its slightly smaller size and several details of scalation and morphometrics. But it appears to be still more closely related to L, andinus Koslowsky, wich is also a short-tailed form.

Se describen cuatro especies de Liolaemus, la primera, L, salinicola sp. n., pertenece al subgénero Ortholaemus; es el más grande de todos y probablemente endémico alrededor de la marisma de Pipanaco (Prov. de Catamarca, Argentina). El segundo, L. fittkaui sp.n., de la región de Cochabamba, Bolivia, está relacionado con L. ortizi Laurent de Cuzco, Perú y podría ser un vicariante del sur. El tercero, L. irregularis sp.n., de la comarca de San Antonio de los Cobres, Prov. de Salta (Argentina), parece haber sido confundido con L. mocquardi Pellegrin descrito en el ?Altiplano?, límite de Perú y Bolivia, que es sólo la hembra de L. pulcher, sinónimo de L. ornatus Koslowsky. El cuarto, L. poecilochromus sp. n., de Antofagasta de la Sierra (Prov. de Catamarca) había sido previamente confundido por el autor con L, multicolor Koslowsky del cual puede ser un vicariante del suroeste; se diferencia de él por su patrón de color más fuertemente contrastado, su tamaño ligeramente más pequeño y varios detalles de escalación y morfometría. Pero parece estar aún más estrechamente relacionado con L, andinus Koslowsky, que también es una forma de cola corta.
