Taxonomic notes on the Phalotris bilineatus group (Serpentes: Dipsadidae: Elapomorphini), with the description of a new species from northwestern Argentina

The examination of 93 specimens of the Phalotris bilineatus group housed in the major Argentinian collections allowed us to recognize three additional species of this group. We propose the resurrection of two names, Phalotris spegazzinii and Phalotris suspectus, previously placed in the synonymy of...

El examen de 93 ejemplares del grupo de Phalotris bilineatus depositados en las principales colecciones de la Argentina permitió reconocer tres especies adicionales del complejo. Proponemos la revalidación de dos nombres, Phalotris spegazzinii y Phalotris suspectus, previamente ubicados en la sinonimia de Phalotris bilineatus, y se describe una nueva especie del noroeste de la Argentina. La nueva especie se reconoce con base en una combinación única de caracteres. Adicionalmente, redescribimos los taxones revalidados (brindando información sobre patrones de coloración, caracteres morfológicos y merísticos) y presentamos nuevos datos sobre su distribución geográfica.
