Cnemidophorus sacki
25 mi NW Elota, Sinaloa, Mexico
2552-9 R2
July 18, 1953
Adults have no stripes. Head gray, body spotted yellow, tail bluish-green along side.
Very different from Mazatlan lizards.
In 1950 it was noted that the Sonora lizards were striped through adulthood,
like those at Mazatlan, while some from near Navajo were spotted, as these Elota lizards.
The suggestion of distinct coastal and foothill
forms is strengthened. Dark venters.
7 mi W Guachimil, Sinaloa, Mexico
2565-6 R2
July 19
Again the spotted form.
