See account by Cei, 1980, Monit. Zool. Ital., N.S., Monogr., 2: 272–274. See Vidoz, Úbeda, and Vidoz, 2002, Herpetol. Rev., 33: 219, for range extension and comment on range. Díaz-Páez and Young, 2003, Herpetol. Rev., 34: 379–380, reported a specimen from Juan Stuven Island, Region de Aysen, Chile. Cuevas and Ugarte, 2008, Herpetol.
