In spring and autumn the cages were sprinkled with water four times per day (in midsummer 6 times) for up to four minutes in the hottest time of the day. During the winter the terrariums were illuminated with common ter- rarium-tubes (T5 with 35 W) 13 hours per day. A halo- gen spot was activated for 45 minutes three times per day for basking, so that the ambient temperature stayed be- tween 22 and 24 °C at day time and between 6 and 16 °C at night time. The terrariums were completely sprinkled with water in the morning and evening. The diet consist- ed of small arthropods, mainly self-bred crickets, grasshoppers, flies, cockroaches etc. Every second feed- ing the food was enriched with vitamins and minerals. On- ly pregnant females were additionally given small pieces of cuttlebone. To trigger mating behaviour, the males were transferred into the cages of the females. Immediately, the males started head bobbing and displayed bright Fig. 5. Head view of the holotype of K. u. artytor ssp. n. (photo: N. Lutzmann).
