Therefore, the specific name, kachhensis (masculine), had to be changed to kachhense (neuter) to agree in gender with Cyrtopodion.

[2] Nota bene: A trinomial authority in parentheses indicates that the subspecies was originally described in a genus other than Cyrtopodion.

The subspecific name, ingoldbyi, is in honor of Captain Christopher Martin Ingoldby (1887–1927), who was an officer in the British Army Medical Services and collected zoological specimens.

[3][4] The species, C. kachhense, is found in Pakistan (Sindh, Balochistan), adjacent India (Kachchh, Gujarat), and Iran.

[2] The subspecies, C. k. ingoldbyi, is widely distributed in the Sulaiman Range extending into the Waziristan Hills, along the western border of Punjab, Pakistan.
