discussion

Comments. The record of Dispholidus typus of Pérez del Val (2001) labelled as MNCN 19977, is a misidentification with a juvenile of T. flavigularis (Figure 21 B). Because no confirmed records of D. typus exist in Equatorial Guinea, we remove it from the reptile species list of the country. Specimens examined. Eleven specimens. Bioko: Malabo, 3 º 45 ′ N 08 º 47 ′ E, 02 July 1987 (EBD 20829). Río Muni: Cabo San Juan [MNCN 9052 (recorded by Boulenger 1905), MNCN 19977]; Mongomo, Añisoc (EBD 25005 – 25006); Mongomo, 1 º 38 ′ N 11 º 19 ′ E, 16 April 1986 (EBD 20826 – 20827); Miboman (road from Bata to Niefang) (EBD 27552); Miboman, 30 km from Niefang (EBD 25036); Miboman (road to Niefang), 08 July 1986 (EBD 20828); Niefang, 01 June 1984 (EBD 18672).
