The geographic distribution of Atractus lehmanni (Boettger, 1898) (Serpentes, Colubridae, Dipsadinae) in Colombia, and clarification of its status and type locality in Ecuador

Atractus lehmanni (Boettger, 1898), Lehmann’s Ground Snake, (Serpentes, Colubridae, Dipsadinae), was described by Boettger (1898) from Cuenca, Ecuador. We examined records of snakes labeled as A. to determine if they fit the original description this species. The results our record examinations, in conjunction with long-term field surveys and a review Friedrich Carl travel logs, indicate that occurs Cordilleras Central Occidental Colombia. Conversely, species is apparently absent Ecuador, where are error or based on misidentifications.
