Asaccus zagrosicus

Asaccus zagrosicus is a species of leaf-toed gecko endemic to Iran.

[1][2] The holotype was collected in 2008 in southern Lorestan in the Tang-e-Haft Region between the central Zagros Mountains and Khuzestan Plain.

Asaccus zagrosicus is distinguished from other similar species by a combination of the following: secondary postmental scales not in contact with the lowerlabials; scansors not extending beyond the claws, body size may be greater than 40 mm (1.6 in) in length.

[2] It was observed as active at night and during the day, only inside of tunnels in the Tang-e-Haft region.

[3][2] Other reptiles co-occurring with Asaccus zagrosicus were Hemidactylus sp., Cyrtopodion scabrum, and Pseudocerastes persicus fieldi.
