Colobosauroides carvalhoi

Colobosauroides carvalhoi is a species of lizard in the family Gymnophthalmidae. It is endemic to Northeast Brazil.[1] We found that the distribution of Colobosauroides carvalhoi is structured within the southern canyons, with a marked reduction in abundance from the base of rock cliffs through the central portion of the valleys.[2]
