Females brown dorsally, with light dorso- lateral and lateral stripes; venter with black streaking and spotting on throat, otherwise dirty whitish, unmarked (Fig. 15). Diagnosis. No other species of Steno- cercus has bold black spots covering the entire venter, including limbs and tail, in adult males (Fig. 13). However, males in some southern populations referred to S. chnjsopygiis have black coloration on the ventral pelvic region and base of the tail, occasionally covering more of the venter (Fritts, 1974). Stenocercus stigmosus is very similar to S. chnjsopijgus in all me- ristic and mensural features (Table 1), and it will key to S. chnjsopijgus using Fritts' (1974) key. Fritts (1974) reported geo- graphic variation in coloration and meristic features among populations of S. chnjso- pijgus. However, topotypic males of chnj- sopijgus (Rio Santa valley, Ancash depart-.
