New data on the distribution of Eryx jaculus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Reptilia: Serpentes) in Bulgaria
Abstract
We report three newly registered localities of the javelin sand boa - Eryx jaculus along the Black Sea Coast. The nearest known localities (outside of the study area) of the species are situated at a considerable distance (100-230 km) from the recently discovered ones. The data presented here confirm the presence of E. jaculus along the Bulgarian Black Sea Coast and expand the knowledge on its distribution both in the country and in the Balkans.
